Kyle Walker-Peters recalls a night in the Nou Camp as the “best and worst experience” of his career.
Walker-Peters, 24, has come a long way since his mistake back in December 2018 gifted Barcelona a goal and a dream start in a Champions League clash with Tottenham. Southampton full back Walker-Peters believes it was all part of a valuable learning process which saw him have to leave Tottenham but has paid off in the long run with his first senior England call-up.
Walker-Peters said: “Whenever people ask me about that I talk about it as the best and worst experience I had. It was an opportunity for me to realise you’re going to make mistakes in games but how well can you continue to play? I remember Harry Kane and Danny Rose coming over to me after the mistake and saying ‘you’re playing well, just keep going and don’t worry.’
