Andros Townsend’s girlfriend mistook computer game Football Manager for real life when she quizzed him about a fine he’d appeared to receive for missing training.
The Spurs and England winger was initially confused by her text, then mightily amused once the penny had dropped…
Townsend even took to Twitter to share the delightful misunderstanding with the official Football Manager account…
@FootballManager do you wanna tell her or shall I? @Hazelosullivan1 pic.twitter.com/3GkgMEgiMy
