The King Cup final between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid (3-2) on Saturday was marked by incidents at the end of the match. Antonio Rüdiger, the central defender of the Merengue, distinguished himself by launching a projectile towards the referee. A gesture which earned him a red card, despite his replacement at the 11th minute of extensions, and which could cost him between 4 and 12 games of suspension in Liga.
This Sunday, the German international tried to extinguish the fire by apologizing via a message on social networks. An approach deemed insufficient by his compatriot and legend of Mannschaft, Lothar Matthäus, who demands an exemplary sanction.
“He completely forgot that he was a model”
“He was crazy. He could no longer control himself and his teammates had to tighten him very hard to contain him. They held him as a wrestler to prevent him from going to the field ”first commented on the 1990 world champion and Ballon d'Or the same year, at the microphone of Sky Germany.
And to continue: ” If he takes four games, nothing will happen to him. I hope it will be two figures, because he has completely forgotten that he was a model, as an international. I foresee an XXL sanction, despite its apologies. »»
