On a long ball to Noussair Mazraoui, the referee immediately indicated an offside, while in the process, Matthijs de Ligt followed up with a shot which lodged in the back of the net and which would have allowed Bayern to equalize. Was the Moroccan offside? Not at all, according to the Bavarians, while the VAR could not validate or cancel the goal because the referee had whistled before the Dutchman hit the goal. Szymon Marciniak even apologized to Bayern at the final whistle. But not enough to calm a furious Thomas Tuchel, while his players had also strongly criticized the refereeing.

Tuchel completely let go
“It is very difficult to accept these excuses. It’s a Champions League semi-final, this is not the time to make excuses, really not”he told the German media, before continuing at a press conference: “it’s pretty clear. What happened was against all the rules of modern football. The first big mistake comes from the linesman. He did it in another injury time action with Alphonso Davies. I have a strange feeling. Raising the flag in a situation like that, where you can never, ever be sure of an offside… Having the balls, the guts, to raise the flag in a situation like that, it’s a huge decision. And it’s a bad decision.”.

“The referee, when he sees that we win the second ball, that there is the rebound and that we can shoot, he has the possibility of not blowing the whistle. But he decides to whistle. It’s against all the rules, I’m sorry. We accept losing, that’s how it is. But it wouldn’t have happened on the other side.”, concluded the German, very angry. The message has gotten through, but it is Real Madrid who will play in the Wembley final…
