Already while walking to the side, the two screamed against each other and that went on the couch for a while. Kökcü was even screaming to point after Low, who in turn also threatened his finger in the air. The two were not yet finished with their fight, when Benfica scored through Renato Sanchez, the replacement of Kökcü. Low could clearly laugh about it and said nothing towards the midfielder behind his hand.

In the first interview after the match, Lage did not want to comment on what had happened between him and Kökcü. Instead, he praised the invaders of his team.
