Slot Appreciates Alonso for UCL Match
It's not every day you see a defender scoring a screamer in a Champions League match, but that's exactly what happened when Marcos Alonso sent the ball flying into the back of the net in Chelsea's clash against Real Madrid. Alonso's goal was a real game-changer, and it's no surprise that Slot, the manager of his former club, Feyenoord, was full of praise.
Slot, who worked with Alonso at Feyenoord during the 2019-20 season, took to Twitter to express his admiration for the Spanish defender's performance. "What a goal from Alonso!," he wrote. "He was always a great player, and it's amazing to see him performing at such a high level."
Slot's tweet shows just how much respect he has for Alonso's ability and commitment. Alonso's goal against Real Madrid was a true testament to his talent and dedication. Slot was clearly impressed by Alonso's performance, and his tweet was a great way to show his appreciation for the defender's success.
Alonso's goal also highlights the importance of having a versatile squad. The Spaniard has not always been a first-choice starter at Chelsea, but he has proven time and time again that he can step up when called upon. His goal against Real Madrid shows that even players who are not always in the starting lineup can still make a big impact.
It's great to see a manager like Slot taking the time to praise a player who is no longer under his charge. It shows that even after a player moves on, there is still a connection and a level of admiration that exists. Slot's tweet was a great way to show his support for Alonso, and it's a testament to the special bond that exists between a player and his manager.
