In an interview with Sports Desk, Ayo clarified that the hug ” had a purpose”.
“It was very unfortunate that it happened, pero ‘di na namin pinag-uusapan yun (but we don’t talk about it anymore). We’re focused on the upcoming season,” he said in an interview with ABS-CBN News.
Olsen remarked the same sentiments regarding the Davao incident and the hug.
“Same thing with coach Aldin. Sa akin (for me), I always tell my boys not to dwell on the past and be mindful of the present. Having said that, kalimutan na natin ang nangyari, (let’s forget about what happened)” he said, also reported by ABSCBN News.
