Roger Schmidt pushes a hell of a rant against arbitration

End of series for Benfica. Undefeated so far in the Champions League this season, the Lisbon club conceded its first loss on Tuesday once morest Inter Milan (0-2), in the quarter-final first leg of the competition. Despite several situations and the support of their public, the Águias had to bow on a header from Nicolò Barella then a penalty from Romelu Lukaku. After the meeting, Benfica coach Roger Schmidt did not hesitate to point the finger at the decisions of the match referee, Michael Oliver.

“In Italy we will have to win. Two goal difference is not the best, but we have to believe in it. We tried to create chances, but it’s not easy once morest this very well organized team.first underlined the German coach. But in my opinion, the penalty (from Lukaku) is a bad decision by the referee, he continued. We were unlucky with the referee’s decisions, we might have had a penalty too. We have to accept the result. In this competition, we play once morest very good teams all the time and these teams are very effective and manage to win these kinds of matches. It’s not easy to play Inter Milan with a two-goal margin, we will have to be attacking and at the same time not concede goals.
