The wrong decision by an English referee could have dire consequences for Dortmund!
In the 1: 3 against Ajax, BVB played 61 minutes outnumbered because Mats Hummels (32) was thrown off the pitch without authorization.
29th minute: Hummels pulls Antony off. Referee Michael Oliver (36) immediately shows red!
But slow motion shows: It’s not a brutal foul, yellow would have been enough. But Oliver doesn’t even watch the scene in the video.
Thorsten Kinhöfer (53), referee expert at BILD am SONNTAG: “Depending on how you stand, it can look as if it knocks you down at real speed. But the video referee has to see that he slips past and hits him in the process. That’s a maximum of yellow! I have no explanation why the referee doesn’t at least look at it. “
DAZN expert Sandro Wagner: “This is a typical Mats Hummels tackle. He’s been doing this for 35 years – although he’s not that old yet. The referee is from England. It’s not even yellow there. That is a cheek. “
Injured superstar Erling Haaland foams in the box of supplier Puma, where he watches the game together with his Norwegian compatriot and world chess champion Magnus Carlsen. Hummels leaves the square with tears in his eyes and is bid farewell with standing applause.
After all: BVB takes the lead. Mazraoui fouls Bellingham. This time Oliver looks at the scene in the video and decides on penalties. Reus transforms (38th).
With ten men, BVB does not manage to make ends meet. Tadic equalizes (72nd), the ex-Frankfurt Haller scores 2: 1 (83rd). Ex-Bremen professional Klaassen still scores 3: 1 for Ajax (90th + 3).
Dortmund remains in second place and has a final for second place against Sporting Lisbon on November 24th.
