Furious Jack Grealish responds to Roy Keane penalty criticism

EURO 2020

Jack Grealish has hit back at Roy Keane after he accused the England midfielder of not wanting to take a penalty during the Euro 2020 final shootout. The Aston Villa star had been used sparingly by Southgate before the tournament, but was eligible to take a spot kick having been introduced as a substitute at Wembley against Italy. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Despite his seniority in terms of age, Grealish was not in England’s first five penalty takers and it was left to the likes of Jadon Sancho and Bukayo Saka to try and hold their nerves from the spot. Ultimately, that duo, along with Marcus Rashford, failed to score under the pressure and Keane accused Grealish and Raheem Sterling of shirking their responsibilities as a senior player. He said: ‘...
