Back in the day, the quarrels that happened on the football pitch would usually remain there. The stories of rivals who mercilessly fight on the pitch and then end up in some pub drinking beer together are mainly far-fetched, as that – truth be told – wasn’t the case too often. Yet, the “warring parties” usually didn’t see each other until the next duel, and the time that passed usually helped them “bury the hatchets.”Lamine Yamal’s response to the former Real Madrid player? Lowered shorts!Nevertheless, with the introduction of social media, those “on-field” fights can easily be transferred to the “virtual world,” where they would not only unnecessarily prolong but would continue before the eyes of the whole world.The latest example started last night during the match between Hungary and Turkey but turned into a genuine social media war in the meantime. Opposing sides? Real Madrid gem and Turkey international Arda Guler and Liverpool midfielder and Hungary captain Dominik Szoboszlai.Savage 🥵Dominik Szoboszlai had a brutal comeback to Real Madrid’s Arda Güler after he was 🤫’d by the Turkey star in last night’s fixture.Szoboszlai commented on an Instagram post of Güler with “1088” – this is how many minutes Guler played for Madrid this season 😬 pic.twitter.com/PWD8bbkZHD— Football on TNT Sports (@footballontnt) March 24, 2025 The youngster seems to have started everything by gesturing the rival to shut up while on the pitch since the Hungarians were thrashed in two games against Turkey 6-1 on aggregate. Szoboszlai initially just smiled but didn’t wait long to respond after the match, commenting, “1088,” referencing Guler’s playing time at Real Madrid this season.🚨 NEW: Arda Guler HITS BACK against Dominik Szoboszlai, after the Liverpool star commented ‘1088,” on his Instagram, highlighting the number of minutes Arda’s played this season… pic.twitter.com/f8NWfRUcmg— Sam C (@SamC_reports) March 24, 2025 Yet, the 20-year-old Turk refused to get over this “brutal” remark, posting a photo of himself taunting Szoboszlai as well as the scoreboard showing last night’s game result (3-0) with a caption saying, “This guy is a joke. Isn’t 6 goals enough to shut you up?”Now, the ball is in the Hungarian’s court, as the entire football world wonders whether he’s come up with another “savage” response. Or Szoboszlai could simply “suck it up,” act like a more mature person and end the whole drama. It’s up to him.##NAJAVA_MECA_8803386##
