The thrill of victory got the best of Ghanaian soccer player Mohammed Anas and, it caused him to make a terrible mistake on live television. After a great performance that helped his team earn a 2-2 draw, he was awarded the Man of the Match award for the game’s best player.
During his post game speech, he got carried away a bit and enthusiastically thanked his wife and girlfriend for inspiring him. He did attempt to catch his mistake, but it was too late.
“Firstly I appreciate my fans,” he began. “(And) my wife and my girlfriend.”
Anas stumbled for a second before realising his blunder, quickly clarifying he intended to thank his wife.
“I’m so sorry, my wife!” he exclaimed. “I love you so much from my heart.”
“Thanks for supporting me there is more to come,” he stuttered before the interview came to an end.
Well at least his side chick can take solace in knowing that he was thinking about her too. Flip the page for video of Mohammed thanking his wife and side chick.
