Player Interaction During Game

I think everyone wants to know, what did he say to you and what did you say back and how did that start?

Yeah, it was nothing really. I just seen him come into my eyeline and just gave him a little push, just to make sure he was real.

I had to touch him to make sure that he was a human. He didn't take too kindly to it and he was just saying, he said it in Spanish now,

he said, Lopez, that's a foul. There's no ball here, don't touch me. I just thought he was trying to take me off my game, so I gave it not mind.

He just kept going and then the referee blew for half time and I just said to him, look, I just need to touch you to make sure you're there

because you'll be behind me, I'm in deep trouble. We just shook hands and got on with it.
