“A 2026 penalty” for Hervé Mathoux, a straight penalty “scandalous” for Bertrand Latour. The plateau of Channel Champions ClubTuesday evening on Canal+ Foot, did not understand the penalty awarded to PSG at the end of the first period of the Champions League semi-final first leg against Bayern. A cross from Ousmane Dembélé was blocked by the arm slightly removed from the body by Alphonso Davies and the video referee indicated to his center, the Swiss Sandro Schärer, a possible penalty kick.
“Dembouz” thus gave the advantage back to his team (45th + 5, 3-2) after a rather incredible 45 minutes. Harry Kane opened the scoring from the penalty spot (17th) to reward Bavarian domination, before the fury of Luis Enrique’s team: Khvicha Kvaratskhelia equalized with a curling shot (24th) and Joao Neves gave the Parisians the advantage with a header from a corner (33rd) in a delirious Parc des Princes. Michael Olise then slipped through the middle to forcefully equalize (41st).
“ It’s not a penguin »
“For me it is a scandalous penalty, which does not live up to this remarkable match, even if it does not please the public, because the ball first hits the thigh, a part of Davies’ body, before ending on the hand, especially since the two players are extremely close, he shoots him at point blank range. He’s not a penguin, he still has two arms, poor Davies, I think the match is tilting on that at the moment and it’s a shame because it’s a boxing fight, it’s fantastic”analyzed Bertrand Latour at half-time.
At his side, the former French international Samir Nasri, certainly a native of Marseille but rather objective in his analyzes of the PSG match, said he ” All right “
with his journalist colleague regarding this penalty which should not have been awarded, according to them, to the reigning European champions.
