Sergio Pinto: I was innocent and Boateng deserved a red card – Bundesliga News
Hannover winger http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-Pinto-c33094 has claimed to be innocent following an incident in the game against Bayern Munich. The Bavarian defender Jerome Boateng was shown his marching orders following a foul on pinto.
The winger received heavy criticism from Bayern fans for overreacting, which led to Boateng’s red. Later on, the officials also accused the winger for overcooking the entire situation.
Both the clubs locked horns on Sunday, October 23, at AWD-Arena. Hannover emerged as unlikely 2-1 winners on the night, with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Christian-Pander-c9111 scored goals for the home side. Midfielder David Alaba recorded a solitary goal for the
Bavarian giants.
This loss also ended Bayern’s 13-match unbeaten run and goalkeeper http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Manuel-c23383 Neuer’s ambition of spending record time in the Bundesliga without conceding a goal.
Abdellaoue opened the scoring in the 23rd minute, causing havoc in the Reds rank. Pander doubled the lead with just six minutes into the second period. Bayern, for the first time in 13 games, were forced onto the back foot and had no answers to
Hannover’s courageous display.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Alaba-c10416 got one goal back in the 83rd minute which wasn’t enough to save Munich’s blushes. It was Bayern’s second loss of the current season, having previously been dumped by last year relegation contenders, Borussia Monchengladbach.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pinto-c30032 mentioned that the Reds are rightly frustrated and as a result are pointing fingers at him. He told that it was a harsh tackle, which might have put his season in danger.
While talking to Maisfutebol, the 31-year-old further added, "I do not need to defend myself. I suffered a foul. What happened next does not concern me. I was on the ground, I did not do anything. I do not understand all this controversy, but what they say
does not mean anything to me.”
He concluded the talks by saying, "It is a shame that no-one is talking about the game anymore. We had a great match and people in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 only talk about that foul, because it was against Bayern. I mean, I suffer a foul and I am the guilty party?"
The game against Bayern was Pinto’s 100th Bundesliga appearance for the club and he currently has 16 goals under his belt until now.
