In a dramatic twist in the Champions League, Real Madrid coach Álvaro Arbeloa harshly criticized referee Slavko Vincic for the decision to send off Eduardo Camavinga, which he described as 'inexplicable.'
Camavinga, a Real Madrid substitute, was sent off following minimal contact with Bayern forward Harry Kane. This decision, reportedly influenced by Bayern players, altered the course of the game, allowing Bayern Munich to secure a 6-4 aggregate victory.
While acknowledging Bayern's win, Arbeloa expressed dismay at the officiating, stating that it was unfair in such a high-stakes match. The defeat means a second consecutive season without a major trophy for Madrid and Kylian Mbappé, a prospect that weighs heavily on the team and its supporters.
