Gonzalo Higuain Fnally Replies To Ronaldo And Other Juventus Teammates After Getting Red

Argentina International Gonzalo Higuain has apologised for his behaviour which got him sent off in AC Milan’s 0-2 loss to Juventus at San Siro last night. Enraged after being penalised following a collision with Juventus defender Medhi Benatia, the former Real Madrid forward was booked for dissent, then given another yellow immediately afterwards for continued protest.

“First of all, I want to apologise to the team, the coach, the supporters and the referee for my reaction,” Higuain said. “I take responsibility for what happened. Obviously, I hope that it doesn’t happen again. It was one of those moments. “We were losing. I missed a penalty and we aren’t robots but people. But I don’t want to try and justify my actions.”

Juventus loaned Higuain to Milan for one year with an option to buy in August after signing Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid, Higuain reiterated that it was however not his decision. “It was taken by others, not by me. I have always given everything in Turin,” said Higuain, who scored 55 goals in 105 appearances for Juventus.

“Now I’m at Milan and I’m fine here. I am a very emotional person and player, so sometimes it is difficult to contain myself. “You can see me in the face if I’m feeling good or bad,” he added. “We are an example for children and I know my action was not the right one.

He also thanked his former Juventus team mates who tried to restrain him. “I had a great rapport with them, it was pleasing that they came and tried to hold me back. “They know that players have emotions and this game went wrong, above all for me, and I can only apologise.”

The Federal Government negotiating team has appealed to the striking Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, to return to the negotiating table, while denying that it has proposed the imposition of N350,000 and N500,000 as tuition fees to be paid per annum by undergraduates. Speaking with newsmen in Lagos, weekend, Chairman of the team, Dr. Wale Babalakin, dismissed the figures as not only incorrect and contradictory, but also a figment of the imagination of ASUU officials peddling them around the country. He said: “We do not know from where ASUU got the figures that it has been peddling around the country. Aside from the fact that our committee has no power to impose fees on students, we are at a loss regarding the source of the said figures.” Babalakin disclosed that while the committee regarded dialogue with ASUU as the most effective way of resolving contentious issues bordering on the industrial dispute, it currently had little choice but to respond to “all...
