In the way that Raheem Sterling helped his Manchester City club on Wednesday against Shakhtar Donetsk to take a 2-0 lead, the striker is not happy. For the rest, the referee Viktor Kassai kicked him in a bizarre way.
Sterling entered the penalty area in the first half of the match won by the Champions League (6-0) and fell because he had clearly fallen to the ground. To everyone's surprise, Kassai used a penalty, which was then used by Gabriel Jesus.
"I wanted to score the ball and I did not know what was going on, but I found myself on the ground, there was no contact and it happened. apologize to the referee and Shakhtar, "said Sterling, 23, who scored 3-0 after the match at BT Sport .
He also surprised manager Josep Guardiola and Sterling had a penalty for the loot. "We knew right away that it was not a penalty", according to the Spanish
"Raheem could have said it honestly, but James Milner could have done it against Liverpool on behalf of Liverpool the season last, but I do not like Such a way of scoring, but Raheem did not realize what was happening at that time. "
Guardiola can not wait VAR
According to Guardiola, the remarkable incident of the match against Shakhtar is a confirmation of the fact that the Champions League urgently needs to import the VAR (Video Assistant Referee). The video arranger will debut next season in the multi-million ball, but Guardiola would have preferred it before.
"Referees have said for a long time that they needed help, they did not want to make mistakes, it does not take more than ten seconds to make a decision. VAR Help. "
Despite the unfair sanction, Sterling is looking forward to the victory over Shakhtar, as earlier in the group stage, City surprisingly beat the goal in the end against Olympique Lyon .
"This win is very important, the match against Lyon woke us up and teams like Lyon and Shakhtar can hurt you if you lose the ball."
