Florian Niederlechner was in a bad mood after the game in Leverkusen
Leverkusen and Munich – After the defeat in Leverkusen, Florian Niederlechner rails against a referee’s decision. The FC Augsburg striker is demanding a red card. Florian Niederlechner was served after the 2-0 defeat at Bayer Leverkusen.
“I don’t understand this,” scolded the FC Augsburg goal scorer after the game at Sky. What he did not understand was a decision by referee Sven Jablonski.
The referee had shown Bayer’s Edmond Tapsoba a yellow card after 20 minutes of play after he had deliberately picked up the ball.
Niederlechner: “A clear red card”
“He prevents a clear scoring chance, otherwise I would simply run away,” Niederlechner described the scene with a glance at the replay. “You can see how emotional I seem, because otherwise I just run alone towards the goal. He takes it with his hand, it’s not as if he falls on it. For me it’s a clear red card.”
The 29-year-old admitted, however, that the Augsburg defeat was all right despite the disputed decision: “We still deserved to lose, but these are decisive scenes. If I make it 1-0 there, or there is a red card, it changes the game completely.”
