Danish goalkeeper and captain Kasper Schmeichel is disappointed with the work of the refereeing team led by Michael Oliver in the Euro 2024 1/8 finals match against Germany (0: 2).
Kasper Schmeichel, Getty Images"I feel disappointment, anger, rage - all at once. However, this is the football of today.
I've been playing professional football for 23 years, but I still don't know the rules. I don't know what a player should do when he runs and the ball hits him in the hand when he was just a meter away. Those little things that were decisive were definitely on Germany's side today.
I'm not sure if football and common sense still go together," Schmeichel told ITV Football.
In the 49th minute of the game, Denmark opened the scoring, but this goal was canceled due to offside, which was recorded by VAR. Three minutes later, the ball hit the hand of Danish defender Joachim Andersen, and again, after reviewing VAR, Michael Oliver pointed to the eleven-meter mark. The penalty was converted by Kai Havertz.
