Bayern Munich trio confronted referee after Madrid loss

Bayern Munich’s trio of  Arturo Vidal, Robert Lewandowski and Thiago Alcantara reportedly stormed the referee’s dressing room following a defeat to Real Madrid that had moments of controversy last night.

The Bavarians were beaten 4-2 by Real at the Bernabeu, going out of the Champions League quarter-finals 6-3 on aggregate, but a number of big decisions went against them on the night. Vidal is alleged by El Chiringuito to have been one of the players involved, being that the Chilean midfielder was given what looked a harsh red card in the second half of the match.

Cristiano Ronaldo later gave Real the lead with a goal that was clearly offside, and some angles suggest his third of the night also shouldn’t have stood as he again looked marginally off.
