Bayern’s Neuer out for rest of season with foot fracture

Rage, because we were swindled.

Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge accused the officials of “killing” the Germans’ hopes during a hugely entertaining match.

In a controversial, bad-tempered clash, Arturo Vidal was sent off for Bayern, who forced extra-time in Madrid after Robert Lewandowski converted a penalty and Sergio Ramos scored an own goal to make it 2-1 after 90 minutes.

During his time with Los Blancos he picked up one La Liga title, two Copa Del Rey trophies, one Supercopa de España and one Champions League, scoring six goals in a total of 236 appearances.

“The important thing was to get through to the next round against a great team, very strong. Today was also such a game”.

Bayern also complained about the referee sending off their Chilean midfielder Arturo Vidal for a foul, which according to Bayern players he did not commit.

Much like the first leg, Madrid weathered the early storm and had plenty of chances to go in front before half time. The Portuguese global appeared to be in an offside position on both occasions but took full advantage of the linesman failing to raise his flag to knock Bayern out of the tournament.

“The referee probably wasn’t up to the task”, Ancelotti said. “It’s a pity, because it was the flawless game otherwise”, said the Italian.

Defender Mats Hummels said the decisions “hurt”, while Jerome Boateng said, “10 against 14 is hard to play”.

Speaking after the game, Vidal said Bayern had suffered a “robbery” at the hands of Kassai, claiming the official, not Real Madrid, had been responsible for their elimination. “We were in control until the red card”.

Real were joined in the Champions League semi-finals by city rivals Atletico, Juventus and Monaco.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored a hat-trick, adding to his double in Munich, with Marcelo setting up the forward’s third with a superb solo run through the Bayern defence. In Tuesday’s second leg alone, Madrid had 12 attempts on target, compared to two for the visitors. Nothing more to say, a kiss to you, come on Madrid!’
