That should have been at minimum a draw.
At least one penalty possibly two denied.
Lousy refereeing.
Off side given against us when Blackstenius was at least two yards onside. Where was VAR?
From our side of things I thought there should be a few more first time strikes.
Seemed to me wanting that extra touch denied us a few decent chances.

On whether the officials explained the decisions…
That’s not how communication with officials works, I wish it worked like that. That is where we have a couple of issues. First of all is that VAR is only introduced in the quarter-finals, I don’t know whether the VAR referee has ever used VAR. Secondly, goal line technology is something you can use at this stage of the competition but it’s not compulsory. Today, it was not in use. Because Bayern Munich choose not to pay for it. Next week at the Emirates Arsenal chooses to pay for it because we think that’s the right thing to do to ensure a fair competition. It is a problem for the competition that not every game has the same level of technology in helping the officials take the right decisions.
On when he found out that Bayern weren’t using GLT…
Yesterday. You have to accept, it is not Bayern’s fault, it is within their right to make the decision. We can all agree that it is very weird that you play in a level of a competition and it comes down to the hosting club if they are going to fund the technology that is being used by both teams.
On whether there is a temptation to not use GLT next week…
It’s not about that, it is not what is important for us, we want to win the right way. Everyone might benefit from goal line technology to know whether the ball is in or not. It is so hard for the referee to see or not. The players deserve to get that level of detail and accuracy.
****ing insane

No but Rafaelle had her shirt yanked in full view of the ref from a corner and that was 100% a back pass.

Bloody hell that was stressful.
How many chances can one team miss against that quality of opposition.
We could have had at least six.
I'm sure if I watched it again now it would be a really relaxing 'well never in doubt'.
In real time though.😲
Maanum's goal has to be up there for goal of the season let alone month.

We'll need a bigger squad for Champions league so he may stay with more chances to play.
