September 27. In the EFL Cup third-round match that took place in the early hours of yesterday morning, West Ham United lost 1-5 as they visited Liverpool, and even more bizarrely, manager Julen Lopetegui confirmed at the post-match press conference that he had sustained a calf injury during the game.
At the time when West Ham United was trailing 1-3, after Sommerfield missed a golden opportunity, Lopetegui jumped up in anger and injured his calf upon landing, limping off the pitch after the game.
At the press conference, Lopetegui admitted, “I can’t play in the next game! I suffered a minor calf injury, but since I don’t have to play, it doesn’t matter!”
