- In the meantime, FC Bayern was on the pitch with twelve men once morest SC Freiburg – that might have serious consequences. (See first report)

Update from April 3, 3:53 p.m.: In the debate regarding Bayern’s substitution error, several experts assumed that Freiburg’s Schlottbeck was lacking in cleverness in the situation in the Sport1 double pass. From a Freiburg point of view, it would have been wiser for ex-Bayern star Stefan Effenberg to tell referee Dingert later that Bayern Munich had one more man on the field: “Had Schlotterbeck not alerted the referee, we would have talked regarding the situation differently . Then he would have been really smart…”
Effenberg continued: “The game would have continued and then we’re no longer talking regarding 17 seconds, but maybe regarding one or the other dangerous situation.”
Former Leverkusen manager Reiner Calmund made a similar statement. The Freiburger is “a good player and an intelligent boy”. That’s why he might have said, “Let’s just keep going instead of complaining. That’s a smart kid. I would have believed that too, with only one goal difference: I won’t get in touch.”
Update from April 3, 1:18 p.m.: For veteran Nils Petersen and SC Freiburg, the mistake made by Bayern initially pushed the bitter 4-1 defeat at home to the sidelines. “There’s a lot of turmoil here, and that’s why we’re all very, very excited to see what’s going to happen. But we are not lawyers either,” said the 33-year-old professional Petersen on Sunday on the Sky TV channel. There is still time “to lodge a protest. The phones will be glowing hot here in the stadium today, and then you’ll have to decide what’s the right thing to do.”
FC Bayern: Exchange breakdown once morest SC Freiburg – Petersen expresses himself
The whole thing is “of course the number one topic in the dressing room”. He also didn’t notice the majority of Munich following the double change, said 1-1 goalscorer Petersen. “If Nico Schlotterbeck hadn’t said anything, we probably would have continued playing like this. How often do we play eleven once morest nine in training – and nothing happens?” said the SC professional and specialist for joker goals with a smile: “That’s why we might have played like this longer.”
Update from April 3, 11:44 a.m.: It feels like the whole of football Germany has only known one topic since yesterday followingnoon: Bayern’s change breakdown in the game once morest SC Freiburg. Ex-professional Didi Hamann also played in his role as Skyexpert on the subject – as usual, in no uncertain terms: “This is a violation of the rules. If one goes onto the field, another has to go down. It doesn’t matter whether they play 20 seconds for 12 players or five minutes,” said Hamann. “For me, there is no question that it must be punished.”
FC Bayern game revoked? Hamann finds clear words
“It’s your own fault. If you have a coaching staff of 10 or 15 people, you have to see that there are 12 people on the pitch.” The clubs are responsible for how many players are on the pitch. It might “be good” that Bayern will lose the points at the green table, added Hamann.
Update from April 3, 10:50 a.m.: Who is responsible for the mishap in the game between SC Freiburg and FC Bayern? DFB chief referee Lutz Michael Fröhlich sees Bayern team manager Kathleen Krüger as particularly responsible (See update below). Im ZDF “Sportstudio” said Felix Zwayer, video referee during the game, on Saturday evening. For him, the faux pas is a chain of events that led to the well-known result.

“The players also follow the game,” explained Zwayer: “If you play outnumbered, you will certainly notice it.” When asked regarding the responsibility for the error, Zwayer said: “In fact, in this case it was a chain.” Manager Krüger initially displayed an incorrect number, “Nevertheless, it is of course the responsibility of the referee team to make the change in accordance with the rules,” Zwayer added. “In practice, the way things are handled is that the task is left to the fourth official.”
“In fact, it’s something that a sports court would clarify,” continued Zwayer, who considers it unlikely that the result would be withdrawn followingwards. After all, Coman was “a fundamentally eligible player”. “From my point of view, this cannot be compared to a situation in which a player is not in the match report.”
Update from April 3, 8:37 a.m.: How did it even come to the situation that FC Bayern was in the meantime with twelve men on the Freiburger Platz? The referee of the game, Christian Dingert, commented on this Sport1, and blames Bayern’s team manager Kathleen Krüger “The player Coman with the number 11 didn’t feel addressed at the moment. In a clarification between Bayern and the fourth official, it was then neglected that the player Coman left the field,” explained the referee.

Update from April 3, 8:15 a.m.: Will the game between SC Freiburg and Bayern not count? (See first report) For a brief moment, the record champions were on the pitch with twelve men – the faux pas has occupied the football republic ever since. DFB referee boss Lutz Michael Fröhlich has now spoken out: “It would have been good if they had checked once more before the game continued. That would have been the best thing for the referee,” said Fröhlich German press agency. Cheerfully, what happened on Saturday would have been avoidable.
The situations will be worked up internally, Fröhlich continues: “It has something to do with concentration and an overview. We have to talk to the referees regarding this once more internally.”
First report from April 2, 2022
Freiburg/Munich – It was probably the strangest scene of the FC Bayern-Victory in Freiburg: Kingsley Coman was substituted in the 86th minute, Marcel Sabitzer was to replace him for the last few minutes. Niklas Süle also came for Corentin Tolisso. Nothing unusual in itself – but Coman hadn’t realized that he had to go out. FC Bayern played 12 players for 17 seconds until the misunderstanding was cleared up following minutes of discussion regarding referee Christian Dingert. The game (Live ticker to read) was continued with dropped ball.
Sky referee expert Alexander Feuerherdt from “Collinas Erben” spoke regarding possible consequences following the game. But Bayern don’t have to fear losing a point – if it’s up to him. Feuerherdt: “I can’t imagine that. Did something happen in the 20 seconds that would have had an impact? It wasn’t like that. If a goal had been scored, it would have been different. There must have been some discrepancy in the referee team.”
FC Bayern wins in Freiburg: “Sabitzer was on the field, although Coman hasn’t gone down yet”
Feuerherdt continues: “Sabitzer was on the field, although Coman hasn’t gone down yet. One might discuss whether someone then gets yellow (votes for the game).“
SkyExpert Didi Hamann contradicted him: “I see it differently. It doesn’t matter how long Bayern was twelve. In fact, this is a violation of the rules. I don’t know why someone goes up there without someone going down. But what should the referee have done? The sports court has to regulate the rest. It’s a violation of the rules, the sports court must punish it – in whatever way.”
What do the statutes say? According to paragraph 17 paragraph 4 of the legal and procedural rules of the German Football Association (DFB), the error might have consequences for the rating of the game. “If a player was not eligible to play or field a game in a game, the team that culpably fielded that player lost the game 2-0 and the opponent won 2-0, unless that The game had not yet been continued by the referee following the player who was not eligible to play or used the game,” it said.
Does Freiburg protest? Theoretically, FC Bayern is threatened with an followingmath
A prerequisite for losing a point would be a protest from Freiburg, for which the SC now has two days. “We drew the referee’s attention to the fact that Bayern has eleven field players on the field,” said Freiburg’s sports director Jochen Saier on Sky: “That was bizarre, I’ve never seen it like that before. He might not judge the consequences. Now we all need to calm down and think regarding it for a bit.”
Dingert also said: “It was a totally confused situation: It was a double change from Bayern Munich. An incorrect number was initially displayed, which is why the player Coman did not feel addressed with the number eleven. That’s why a twelfth player was on the field for a short time, which shouldn’t be. We noticed and then stopped the game. We then consulted each other, and then we continued with a referee ball. It’s annoying for us because of course that scene is the focus now. We will note this in the game report. 15, 16 seconds was the game with twelve players. No goal happened. We will note that, everything else will be decided by the DFB.”
It wouldn’t be the first time a club has been penalized for making a mistake, even this season. Ex-VfL Wolfsburg coach Mark van Bommel had substituted six instead of five times in the second round of the cup at Preussen Münster. The wolves were then excluded from the DFB Cup. There were also mistakes of this kind in the Bundesliga – but mostly they had to do with contract amateurs or foreign players. (cg mit sid)
Why did the ominous (non-)double change from Freiburg come regarding in the first place? Corentin Tolisso appeared to be in a hurry to leave the pitch.
