The German Football Association gave a wrong decision in the second goal of Borussia Dortmund in the game against Werder Bremen (2-2). In the 2-0, which resulted from an own goal of Marco Friedl in the 51st minute, the Dortmund Ramy Bensebaini had been offside. The full -back had not come to the ball, but had lifted his leg when Serhou Guirassy was shot.
Referee Christian Dingert had decided on goal, the Bensebaini campaign was not enough for the video assistant to intervene. “We would say that this is a criminal offside because Friedl is influenced so strongly by Bensbaini. The moment he lifts his leg, he can first see the ball and react to it. That’s why the goal shouldn’t have counted, ”said Alexander Feuerherdt as the referee spokesman for the DFB at“ Sky ”.
There was initially no statement from Bremen for this decision. At the press conference after the game, coach Ole Werner spoke, among other things, about a possible penalty decision. Maximilian Beier had got Issa Kaboré from his legs in the 84th minute, but the pipe of the referee remained silent.
“In the second situation with ISSA, I already had the feeling that it looks pretty like a penalty from the entire movement process,” said Werner (quoted via “dike room”). Already at the games against 1. FC Heidenheim (3: 3) and FC Augsburg (0: 2) there had been controversial scenes to the disadvantage of the Bremen. “In the last four games, these 50:50 situations have often been decided against us, without this being a request. But I would like it to be different again soon. “
