The Central African defender Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa expressed his regret over the nasty tackle on French midfielder Samir Nasri during the Newcastle-Manchester City match. Despite several attempts to contact Nasri and apologize, the calls were unanswered, prompting Yanga-Mbiwa to leave a message. He emphasized that there was no malice in the tackle and was relieved that Nasri’s injury would only keep him out for eight weeks, avoiding any threat to his World Cup participation. The reason for Nasri not answering the calls remains unknown.
