West Ham boss David Moyes issues warning to winking Lyon forward Moussa Dembele
West Ham boss David Moyes has told Lyon forward Moussa Dembele what goes around comes around.
Dembele was caught winking after he was brought down by Aaron Cresswell in the Europa League quarter-final first leg on Thursday.
The left-back was sent off after the referee deemed him to be denying a goalscoring opportunity and the Frenchman gave a wink, just as Cristiano Ronaldo did against England at the 2006 World Cup following Wayne Rooney’s dismissal.
Moyes reminded Dembele that fortunes can quickly change in football and pointed to Cresswell as evidence as his red card came just days after scoring a brilliant free-kick against Everton at the weekend.
“Sometimes you feel as if you can be hard done by and you just have to put it aside and get on with it,” the Scot said.
