“Szoboszlai Shocks Fans as He Hands Over His MOTM Award to Liverpool Teammate After Stunning 10/10 Display.”
In a moment that stunned fans, media, and even members of the Liverpool squad, Dominik Szoboszlai has reportedly returned his Man of the Match award just minutes after Liverpool’s hard-fought victory over Inter Milan.
Although the Hungarian midfielder scored the decisive winning goal — the strike that secured Liverpool’s crucial Champions League result — Szoboszlai insisted that the spotlight belonged elsewhere.
According to post-match dressing-room sources, Szoboszlai believed the fans “voted the wrong person,” arguing that one Liverpool player delivered a flawless, season-defining performance worthy of a perfect 10/10 rating.
And in front of stunned teammates, he handed the award to that player himself.

Witnesses describe the moment as emotional and unexpected.
Despite being the hero on the scoresheet, Szoboszlai calmly placed the Man of the Match plaque in the hands of his teammate, reportedly saying:
> “I scored the winner, yes… but he carried us for 90 minutes.
Fans voted for me, but tonight they picked the wrong guy.”
Such humility is rare at the highest level of world football, especially on a Champions League night where individual glory tends to dominate headlines.
But Szoboszlai’s gesture immediately drew admiration across the dressing room — and exploded across football social media within minutes.
