Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos speaks out about Bayern Munich’s controversial disallowed goal at the Santiago Bernabeu. The German star explained his position on the podcast: “It was a bad decision, you had to let the ball finish. The anger is justified because you have to see this situation through to the end.”
Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer complained to referee Szymon Marciniak
Controversy marked the result of the Champions League match between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich with Matthijs de Ligt’s disallowed goal. In the 14th minute of ιnjury time, Matthijs de Ligt scored to equalize 2-2 for Bayern Munich after a pass from Joshua Kimmich. Assistant referee Listkiewicz raised the offside flag and Mr. Marciniak immediately blew the whistle. The 43-year-old referee should have let the ball end and checked VAR. Therefore, Bayern Munich had to leave the game with a loss of 3-4 after two matches. Mr. Marciniak directly apologized to Matthijs de Ligt for this mistake.
Toni Kroos admits Szymon Marciniak’s referee error on his brother Felix’s ‘Einfach mal Luppen’ podcast. “It was a bad decision. You had to let the ball end. I think it was mainly the assistant referee’s fault. If he raised the flag, the referee would assume that his assistant referee saw it himself. Determine the situation and be confident that it is probably 3 meters offside.
Furthermore, Toni Kroos also sympathized with the unrest at Bayern Munich after what happened to Ԁeprive them of a place in the Champions League final. “The anger is justified because we have to see this situation through to the end,” he said.
“I don’t know if there was a collective stoppage because you could clearly hear the whistle before De Ligt’s shot. It is worth noting that the tension of the match has eased for everyone who wаnted the match to continue.”
