Bayern Munich ousted Real Madrid from the Champions League after a 4-3 victory (6-4 on aggregate) to advance to the semifinals of the competition.
The match was anything but smooth for either team and featured a late red card issued to Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga for time wasting. Camavinga, who picked up a yellow card for pulling on Jamal Musiala’s shirt in the 78th minute ultimately received his second yellow for immaturely picking up the ball and jogging away with it to waste time or frustrate
Bayern Munich or both.
In his 24 minutes of play as a sub, Camavinga di irreparable damage to his team. Afterward, Luis Díaz was asked about Camavinga’s red card and felt like it was deserved.
“I think the referee was right to send him off. We wanted to take the free kick quickly and he didn’t release the ball,” Díaz told El Chiringuito TV (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Indeed, it was deserved and it is hard to fathom exactly what Camavinga thought he was doing, but Bayern Munich would score twice after the ejection and go on to clinch a spot in the semifinal round.
