End of adventure for Lille. The LOSC bowed against Dortmund at the Pierre-Mauroy stadium (1-2, cumulative score 2-3), this Wednesday for the knockout stages of the Champions League. However, the DOGUES started their meeting with an opening of the scoring in the 5th minute by Jonathan David. Unfortunately, the Germans were stronger and more realistic. This cost Genesio to the men a historic qualification for the quarterfinals of the C1.
The disappointment is enormous, in the North, the Lille do not hide it. “We missed a number of things to be able to pass”recognizes President Olivier Létang after the match. He did not fail to approach the subject of arbitration. For him, the penalty given to the BVB following a stroller by Thomas Meunier on Serhou Guirassy is not justifiable. He also believes that Waldemar Anton should have been excluded in the 68th minute for obstruction on Gabriel Gudmundsson.
“There is no penalty”
“We can come back to the penalty … penalty, not penalty … Red card, not red card … I think there is no penalty, and that changes the physiognomy of the match”he reacts before evoking the case of the referee again.
“When there was the designation of the referee (the Swiss Sandro Schärer), I saw that he was Swiss-German and I found it quite special. At halftime, he spoke exclusively in German to Dortmund players. But again, I don't want to make controversy“, He launches. From now on,
“You have to bounce back on Saturday against Nantes”.
