Samuel Eto’o has responded in a clever and cheeky manner to José Mourinho’s comments about his age. Despite Mourinho’s remarks suggesting that Eto’o might be past his prime, the Chelsea striker proved otherwise by scoring a crucial goal against Tottenham and celebrating it in a memorable way.
In his celebration, Eto’o imitated the gait of an old man, perhaps as a playful jab at Mourinho’s comments, indicating that age is just a number and he still has what it takes to make an impact on the pitch. Additionally, Eto’o played a key role in winning a penalty that led to Chelsea’s second goal, further demonstrating his importance to the team.
This response from Eto’o highlights his resilience and determination to prove himself regardless of any doubts or criticisms thrown his way. It’s clear that he’s not letting age define his abilities and remains a valuable asset for Chelsea.
