Jose Mourinho said David de Gea would be well aware of the enormity of his mistake in Spain’s draw against Portugal. Manchester United’s De Gea, considered as one of the best goalkeepers in the world, fumbled a Cristiano Ronaldo strike into the net late in the first half of a very entertaining World Cup draw between the teams on Friday.
Mourinho – who is from Portugal but is De Gea’s club manager at Manchester United – said the 27-year-old would be well aware of his error. “It hurts me to say it but he knows it was a bad mistake. It’s a mistake he doesn’t make with us at Manchester United. But that [sometimes] happens to the best.”
