UCL: Diaz Defends Referee’s Decision to Send Off Camavinga

Luis Díaz, forward for Bayern Munich, has backed referee Slavko Vinčić over his decision to send off Eduardo Camavinga during the UEFA Champions League quarter-final second-leg clash against Real Madrid.

The encounter ended in disappointment for Real Madrid, who crashed out of the competition following a 4-3 defeat on Wednesday night.

Despite goals from Arda Güler, who scored twice, and Kylian Mbappé, Real Madrid appeared to be in control at 3-2.

However, the game took a dramatic turn in the 86th minute when Camavinga was shown a second yellow card and sent off for delaying play after holding onto the ball when Bayern Munich had been awarded a free kick.

Reacting to the incident, Díaz stated that the referee made the correct call, noting that Bayern wanted to restart play quickly but Camavinga failed to release the ball.
