Bayern Munich’s Matthijs de Ligt expressed frustration after his late goal against Real Madrid was controversially disallowed with the linesman apologizing for the decision. Despite Real leading 4-3 on aggregate, De Ligt goal would have forced extra time.

However, Real ultimately triumphed with Joselu scoring twice. De Ligt criticized the decision questioning the application of the offside rule. Paul Scholes also criticized the linesman’s quick flagging. Bayern’s Noussair Mazraoui was deemed offside though replays suggested otherwise.

Real Madrid win secured their spot in the final against Borussia Dortmund at Wembley.
