Marseille's head coach Roberto De Zerbi sharply criticized the penalty awarded by the referee at the end of the match against Madrid's Real team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, this decision was unfair and influenced the final result of the game. Real lost 2:1, with goals scored from penalties awarded to Kylian Mbappe.
The winning goal was scored in the 81st minute. In an interview with the press, De Zerbi described this situation as "very unfair and undeserving of a penalty."
He also noted that in the match, Real finished with 10 players after Dani Carvajal received a direct red card in the 72nd minute. Carvajal was punished for a harsh action against the visiting goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli.
In the second round of the Champions League group stage, Marseille will host Amsterdam's Ajax team at home. This match is an important contest for both teams, and the fight for victory continues.
