Antonio has played against the best of the best at right-back, including Eden Hazard and Marcus Rashford, but according to the forward, his most difficult opponent was a winger who used to play for Swansea.
“Nobody will know who he is, Mo Barrow. When he was at Swansea, I had marked Martial, Hazard, and Rashford. I had marked all of these people, but the one who ripped me the most was Mo Barrow,” Antonio told Adebayo Akinfenwa’s Beast Mode On podcast.
“Bro, they won 3-0, and all the goals were scored by him.” Bang, through my legs, assists. I stood there like, ‘Oh s—, he’s got me. I was so surprised.’ He destroyed me.
