Bayern Munich boss, Thomas Tuchel has claimed the referee did not have courage to award them a penalty in the draw with Arsenal.
The first leg of the Champions League quarter-final ended 2-2 at the Emirates.
Bukayo Saka put the Gunners in front with a curling finish, but Thomas Tuchel’s men were in front before half time thanks to goals from Leroy Sane and a Harry Kane penalty.
Leandro Trossard came off the bench to grab the equalizer for Arsenal.
Tuchel, speaking to TNT Sports, said:
“Tough work, tough game against a very strong opponent with a fantastic crowd today. The atmosphere was amazing for the home team.
“We stepped up after 1-0 down, very good reaction. In general a very good team effort. We hit the post.
“I think the referee did not have the courage to give a deserved penalty today in a bit of a crazy and awkward situation.
“He admitted on the pitch that he saw the situation and that the quarter-final was not enough for him to give a penalty. He admitted he saw the mistake the player made.”
