In a conversation with his brother Felix on the 'Einfach mal Luppen' podcast this Wednesday, Toni Kroos assumed that Real Madrid benefited from the second leg of the Champions League semi-final against Bayern Munich.
“It's bad management. You have to let the play continue. I think it's above all the assistant's mistake,” he said, referring to a move that was interrupted by Szymon Marciniak in the final moments for an alleged offside by Matthijs de Ligt, not even allowing the VAR to re-evaluate it.
“If he raises the flag at that moment, the referee assumes that the assistant saw it exactly that way, and trusts that there is probably an offside of three meters. The anger is justified, because you have to let the situation continue until the end", he added.
The Merengues, it should be remembered, ended up winning the tie by an aggregate score of 4-3, so if that goal had been validated, it would probably have allowed the Bavarians to postpone the decision until at least extra time.
