Third league professional Klaus Gjasula has suffered violent criticism of the referees and in future demanded a sanction for blatant wrong decisions. “Referees have to get punishment as well as clubs and players,” said the veteran von Rot-Weiss Essen after the 1: 6 at Waldhof Mannheim at “Magenta Sport” and said: “It cannot be that they can do everything they want. At some point it is good.”
The trigger was a red card that was unauthorized from Gjasula, which referees Florian Lechner showed the 35-year-old in the game on Saturday for rough fouls. “At the end of the day, I didn’t even step on his foot, but only crashed into his ankle against his excitement,” Gjasula described the duel scene with Kennedy Okpala in the 68th minute and asked: “How long has this been a red card in German football?”
The former Bundesliga professional of SC Paderborn and Darmstadt 98 accused the impartial that he had not even noticed the situation. “Every week, referees simply act as they want to see if they don’t see it. Because if he would see it, he wouldn’t whistle it. That means he didn’t see it,” said Gjasula.
Once in Rage, he claimed that the impartial would distribute red cards “simply according to the feeling”. “That is not possible, so something has to be changed in the future. If a worker builds shit, he gets a punishment from his employer. It must also be with referees,” said Gjasula.
VfL Wolfsburg coach also criticizes referees
There was also criticism of VfL Wolfsburg at the weekend. After the 0: 1 (0: 1) defeat against RB Leipzig, players and coaches struggled, especially with a not given in the first half.
“I’m slowly sorry that so many wrong decisions are still happening, even though we have 50 cameras in the stadium,” said defender Kilian Fischer. After a 24-year-old shot in the 16th minute, it looked as if the ball had touched the hand of the Leipziger Assan Ouédraogo. The video referee could not determine this without doubt, so the game continued without a penalty. “We have already heard on the bench that it was a clear penalty. Later I heard that they also said at Leipziger Bank: This is a clear handball,” said coach Paul Simonis.
The Dutch criticized the referee Robin Braun sharply. “Only the only important person who makes the decisions did not see it. Or was that not enough to give a penalty. I think it’s really a shame that such decisions are made if you have the opportunity to stop the game and check it. You have the time, you can take the time.
