[Not intentional] Gordon tackled Van Dijk and apologized: I will never deliberately shovel people like this

【Not intentional】In Newcastle United's 2-3 Liverpool game, Gordon tackled Van Dijk and left the field. After the game, Gordon apologized on social media:

"I want to sincerely apologize to my teammates and fans. My intentions are simple. I just want to inspire some vitality in the game, but this tackle is not well grasped. I also want to apologize to Van Dijk. I will never deliberately shovel people like this. We talked about it later, and he knows this.

More importantly, I am extremely proud of the time I spent on the court tonight and our performance. The atmosphere you create is exactly why St James Park Stadium is so special. I love everything our club represents, and this emotion is particularly strong at this moment. I will definitely come back and become stronger, just like every setback I have faced, see you back."
