Nuno has since released a statement, saying that the confrontation was due to frustration over the injury of Taiwo Awoniyi and the medical staff's decision to let him continue playing.
Nuno explained that this frustration is natural, as it shows the passion the team has for the club. He also emphasized that today is a day for celebration, as Nottingham Forest is now guaranteed a spot in the European stage after 30 years.
Nuno reminded everyone that there are still two more games left in the Premier League, and the team must keep believing and dreaming until the end. He expressed pride and support for Nuno and the team, and encouraged everyone to celebrate the historic achievements of this season.
Nuno also clarified that there were no issues between him and Marinakis, and that the confrontation was simply due to the confusion over Awoniyi's substitution.
Nuno explained that the team made a different substitution, which left them with one player less on the field, and this caused frustration. He also acknowledged that football is an emotional game, and it's difficult to control emotions, especially when there's a lot at stake.
Nuno praised Marinakis for his passion and desire to make Nottingham Forest a big club, and expressed gratitude to the Marinakis family for their support.
