On the 8th (Korea time), Germany's Sky Sports said 'Fans are demanding a rematch of the Euro 2024 quarterfinals between Germany and Spain' As many as 300,000 fans signed for the replay on an online site.
Germany lost 1-2 to Spain in the quarterfinals of Euro 2024 at Stuttgart Arena in Germany on the 6th (Korea time) after getting a theater goal from Mikel Merino at the end of extra time.
It was a great match. Spain took the lead with the first goal scored by Dani Olmo, who was substituted in the sixth minute of the second half. Germany did not hesitate to sit down. In the 44th minute of the second half, Florian Birtz, who was replaced by Joshua Kimmich, scored a dramatic equalizer.
Germany was able to determine the outcome with momentum. He had a decisive chance in the first minute of the second half of extra time. Jamal Musiala's powerful right footed shot hit Marc Cucurella's arm in the box. It was a clear handball. The German players protested that it was a penalty. Cucurella also seemed to have an inkling of the penalty. Judge Hajimna Taylor's whistle did not go off. It seemed to communicate with the video reading room, but there was no on-field review.
Germany, whose score was not recognized, eventually collapsed. He made a fatal run in the 14th minute, just before the end of the second half of extra time. Mikel Merino headed Olmo's cross and scored a theatrical goal.
Spain advanced to the semifinals with the victory. Host Germany had to be satisfied with advancing to the quarterfinals for the first time in eight years.
However, Germany is shaken by the loss given by the dubious decision. "The ball was going to the net, and the Spaniard blocked it with his hands," German coach Julian Nagelsmann said. I didn't mean to, but that doesn't matter"I vented my anger. German Bild 'After the game, referee Teller fled in a Mercedes. He made no mention of his decision. There are many questions left about how we communicated with VAR.
Italy, most recently victimized by referee Taylor's decision, was even angrier. Referee Taylor repeated his dubious decision in charge of the Europa League final between AS Roma and Sevilla in the 2022-2023 season. In particular, he played a yellow card, and AS Roma lost to Sevilla after a penalty shootout.
Mourinho, who was leading Rome at the time, said, "(The biased judgment) is familiar. "But today was the Europa League final and it is quite difficult to accept this kind of referee. There are more than a few things I want to talk about refereeing. People who have been playing soccer for a long time will immediately notice what is happening."
Mourinho was angry no matter how much he thought about it, and when he saw referee Taylor getting into the car trying to get home from the parking lot, he used foul words, mixing English and Italian. According to 'As', Mourinho repeatedly shouts "XX Shame"Absolutely a charlatan. Congratulations. Congratulations," he said, adding mockery. Even if he stopped him, Mourinho poured out harsh words. In the end, Mourinho was disciplined.
"Taylor is a disgraceful referee," said Maurizio Compagnoni, a reporter for Sky Sports Italy, who reported on Friday. He said, "A person who has a problem with concentration is a fatal disadvantage for the referee." The handball was too obvious. It was also surprising that he did not give AS Roma a penalty in the Europa League final a year ago, which was even worse." Former referee Gianpaolo Calvaresse "Cucurella's hand gesture was clear. It is clear when you check how close his right arm was compared to his left arm.'
This is not the first time that referee Taylor has been involved in a mistrial. South Korea suffered damage at the 2022 Qatar World Cup. In the second group match against Ghana, it was controversial for blowing the ending whistle without giving them a chance to kick a corner. When head coach Paulo Bento protested, he even gave a red card. In addition, he was under fire for blowing the ending whistle even before the end of the second half's extra time against Croatia and Belgium. Referee Taylor, who has been criticized by fans for several misjudgment controversies in the English Premier League, came up to the first division immediately after being demoted to the second division, and was again criticized by fans for being assigned to the Euro tournament. I ended up in an accident.
One X user mocked Taylor Swift for being a better judge than Anthony Taylor.
The German people, who still cannot accept referee Taylor's misjudgment, appear to express their anger through online petitions.
