The German football team's participation in the European Championship ended in the quarter-finals after losing to Spain, after extra time - 2:1.
The host of the continental tournament managed to equalize at the end of the regular part (goal from Virc), but in the additional 30 minutes, he failed to achieve a turnaround and place in the semi-finals. Spain scored the second goal and victory through Merino in the 119th minute.
And a controversial situation was seen in Stuttgart yesterday. German football player Džamal Musijala shot in the 106th minute, and the ball hit the hand of Spanish player Marko Kukurelja. The English referee, Anthony Taylor, did not point to the penalty, and they did not speak from the VAR room either.
That decision did not please the coach of Germany, Julian Nagelsmann.
"If the ball goes clearly towards the goal and the Spanish player stops it with his hand, it doesn't matter if he does it on purpose or not. That's actually the least important thing. It's a clear penalty. The one we got against Denmark was less of a penalty than this one tonight. No I understand how this happens when you have the opportunity to watch the video 48 thousand times. I don't know what rule was applied in the decision that it is not a penalty, but I wonder guided by logic. I don't know when the hand is in a natural position, "said Nagelsman .
Taylor did not make any statements after the game.
