“Instinct was a foreign word for him,” Watzke continued.
Makkelie had imposed a hand penalty on Marius Wolf following video evidence. After Chelsea professional Kai Havertz shot the ball at the post, he had the penalty repeated following another VAR note: players from both teams ran into the penalty area too early.

According to the rules, a repetition is to be scheduled in this case. Havertz converted to the final score in the second attempt.
Bellingham: Penalty replay ‘a joke’
Jude Bellingham described the penalty replay following Dortmund’s Champions League exit as a “joke”. “With every penalty, especially when the run-up is so slow, you have players who are already a meter or so in the penalty area,” he said following the 2-0 defeat at Chelsea.
In any case, the penalty that Havertz converted in the second attempt should not have been given. “I don’t know what else Marius Wolf is supposed to do with his hand. That in itself was disappointing and that they then get a repeat is a joke to me.”
Otherwise, Bellingham bit his tongue to referee Makkelie: “I don’t want any problems. I’ve already paid enough penalties.”
