Arsenal fans were also angry after the match according to another ruling, with Harry Kane only getting a yellow card for elbowing him.
According to Thomas Tuchel, it would have been a penalty for the kindergarten mistake
While Arteta remained diplomatic, his colleague Thomas Tuchel made no secret of the fact that he thought his team should have been awarded another penalty with Bayern leading 2-1. Earlier, Harry Kane took the lead from the penalty spot for Munich.
After David Raya’s kick, Gabriel took the ball in his hands and then he also completed the kick.
– What really makes me angry is the explanation given on the pitch. The referee told my players that it was a kindergarten mistake and that he will not award a penalty in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Terrible explanation, according to which he decides on the handovers within his own authority. “Whether it’s a kindergarten or an adult mistake, this is a heavy decision that has hit us,” Thomas Tuchel growled.
