Overview
- Bayern Munich were eliminated after a 1-1 home draw with Paris Saint‑Germain in the Champions League semi‑final second leg.
- Coach Vincent Kompany said referee João Pinheiro influenced the match and claimed there was no justice in the key decisions.
- He argued Nuno Mendes should have received a second yellow for handling the ball to halt a Bayern attack, disputing an earlier handball call on Konrad Laimer.
- Kompany also cited a clearance that struck João Neves’ outstretched arm in the area that brought no penalty, a sequence media compared to similar handball calls in other games.
- Former Bayern midfielder Michael Ballack told DAZN he felt Pinheiro did not want to show the second yellow to Mendes, and there has been no sign of an official review.
