Javier Aguirre has been replaced by Rafael Marquez as Mexico boss following the defeat by England England winger Anthony Gordon says being sworn at by Mexico boss Javier Aguirre in a viral moment of their World Cup match was "just a bit of fun" and a "compliment". During a first-half hydration break, Aguirre first spoke to midfielder Jude Bellingham before calling out to Gordon when they were both close to the touchline during England's dramatic 3-2 win in the last 16 at the Azteca Stadium. The 67-year-old then shouted an explicit remark to the forward before both of them laughed. "I remembered it," said Gordon, who moved from Newcastle United to Barcelona this summer. "It's just a bit of fun. "I'd just run the full-back down the line so it was a bit of a compliment from him. That's how I took it anyway." It was one of several funny moments from the match widely shared on social media including Harry Kane's post-match interview after losing his voice and England defender John Stones pretending he was injured. Bellingham scored twice to put England 2-0 up before Julian Quinones pulled a goal back for the World Cup co-hosts.
