Read Time:43 Second

Bayern Munich coach, Thomas Tuchel has called out referee Glenn Nyberg for freak handball offence committed by Arsenal’s Gabriel

Tuchel: ā€œThe referee made a huge mistake, there was a penalty for handballā€.

 

ā€œI know it was a crazy situation. They put the ball down, he whistles and the defender takes the ball with his handsā€.

 

ā€œWhat makes us really angry is the explanation on the pitch. He told our players it was a ‘kid’s mistake’ and he won’t give a penalty for that in a Champions League quarterfinal. It’s a horrible, horrible explanation. Kid’s mistake, adult’s mistake, whatever – we feel angry because it was a huge decision against usā€.

The home side were left furious at the final whistle after Saka was denied a late penalty having gone down under a challenge from Manuel Neuer to leave the tie hanging in the balance.
