Victim of a dangerous gesture during the match against Greece (1-0) on Monday, Antoine Griezmann keeps track of the intervention of Konstantinos Mavropanos. Angry, the tricolor middle woman targeted referee Mateu Lahoz on the Instagram social network.
Despite the victory in this Euro 2024 qualifying match, Didier Deschamps could not forget certain facts of the game at the final whistle. At the microphone of TF1, the coach of the France team complained about the decisions of referee Mateu Lahoz who, for the last match of his career, could have awarded more penalties to the Blues against Greece.
Mateu Lahoz criticized
“ Random refereeing decisions? Yes, the term is nice, reacted the French coach. As you know, it was the last game of Mr. Lahoz, a referee character. I have the impression that the VAR did not want to judge him, I saw penalties whistled for much less than that… “After the situations of the first period, it took until the 49th minute to see the France team get a penalty.
And for good reason, on a cross from Theo Hernandez, Konstantinos Mavropanos was the author of a very dangerous gesture. The Greek defender found a way to inflict a kick on the head of Antoine Griezmann, in blood. As a result, the midfielder of Atlético Madrid had to finish the game with a big bandage, before putting a stitch in his temple. In the photos relayed by his wife Erika Choperena, we also notice marks on the arm of the international tricolor.

” Someone will want to kill me but better that than explodewrote the wife of Antoine Griezmann on Instagram. There are times when you don’t see, times when you don’t want to see it, and times when you see what doesn’t exist. We don’t all see the same thing (they say we’re human, and I mean it) but that’s why we move forward, right? We end the season there and we go on vacation. “Probably not with Mateu Lahoz, who only showed a yellow card on this action.
