However, he was still humbled by Anton’s comments, exclaiming: “For the male, you don’t normally do much in Argentinian Tango, because you are showing off the female.
“I feel it went well, but I wasn’t expecting football comments from Anton!”
He added that he is in fact not a football player, but a keen rugby enthusiast.
Meanwhile, Hamza also recently discussed his love life, admitting that his job as a cameraman and presenter on wildlife shows makes it difficult for him to find time for relationships.
He had joked that finding a satellite phone to call a partner from the Arctic would be a challenge – and when at home, he lives in a remote Scottish village of just 150 people.
However, there is no doubt that, after his Strictly success, Hamza will have no shortage of admirers in the wings.
