Uefa scolds the referee of Real Madrid vs. Bayern for the error at the end of the game

The decision angered Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel. “This decision is an absolute disaster. The play must be allowed to continue until the end. It is the rule, even more so when it is a goal play and it is at the limit. The first error is the linesman’s mistake, the second is the referee’s” , he said at a press conference.

“I find the final scene incredible. I can’t understand why he didn’t let the action continue. He asked for forgiveness,” Tuchel added.

The VAR Archive portal revealed that Uefa gave a strong call to attention to the Polish referee for the mistake that could have been decisive in the result of the match.

“Uefa has given a severe warning to Szymon Marciniak after preventing the play from finishing, which is one of the main guidelines that the highest body of European football gives to its referees before the start of the season,” says the portal.

“It is a completely inappropriate ruling for a referee of the Pole’s experience and level, who recognized his mistake after the match,” he added.

Marciniak’s mistake does not cease to surprise, taking into account the great experience he has and the good opinion that Fifa and UEFA have about his work. The 43-year-old Pole was the central referee of the Qatar 2022 World Cup final between Argentina and France.

He was also in charge of last year’s Champions League final between Inter Milan and Manchester City, in which those led by Josep Guardiola won their first European crown.
