Ligue des champions : Pourquoi Nicolas Jackson n’a pas tiré le penalty pour réaliser son triplé face à Fenerbahçe
But ultimately, he wasn't given that chance. While Ross Barkley took the penalty during the match, Jackson made no secret of his desire to take responsibility and try to score a third time.
“Yes, I wanted to take it, but there are rules. I’m very happy. The most important thing is that we won. I hope that next time I’ll get my hat trick,” the striker said after the match.
While Jackson didn't get the chance to complete his hat trick, it was a decision made by the coaching staff. When questioned about this decision, Unai Emery explained that the club has a specific hierarchy for penalties and that Ross Barkley was designated to take them that day.
“We have a plan for penalties. Today, Ross Barkley had the responsibility of taking the penalty. We analyzed his success rate, which is very high in this exercise, and it was clear that he had to be the taker,” explained the Spanish coach.
