'We have been shafted in the truest sense of the word'

The 4-2 result at the Bernabeu was cause for great discontent among Bayern footballers, but they were not the only ones to show their indignation, as the chairman of the German team Karl-Heinz Rummenigge did not hold back when expressing his thoughts.

'For the first time, I've got some sort of mad rage inside me, because we had a shafting. We have been shafted in the truest sense of the word', ranted the Bayern president, on his way to the hotel having just been knocked out of the Champions League.

Bayern had already been defeated 1-2 at home in the first leg, but the Germans are adamant that the second game was decided by the referee.

Midfielder Vidal, who was sent off after receiving a second booking, directly blamed Kassai for the defeat: 'They are two offside goals, the bad red card, Casemiro should have been sent-off before me and it makes a big difference', fumed the Chilean, 'There is a lot of anger. A game of such high intensity can't be decided by the referee'.

The entire dressing room was reportedly desolate after the defeat, as Rummenigge stated: 'The team was in ruins in the dressing room', said the chairman, 'It was an unfortunate, undeserved and bitter defeat'.
