the forward was onside.
Wolfsburg were defeated by Bayern Munich on Saturday at the Vokswagen Arena courtesy a late goal from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luiz-Gustavo-c22844. Both the teams were evenly matched throughout the clash but a goal for the Bavarian giants in the dying moments
of the match secured all three points for the visitors.
The home side should have been one goal up at the interval as forward Patrick Helmes had headed home a cross five minutes before half-time but the goal was disallowed by the referee as he wrongly ruled the striker off-side. The
decision cost the home side as they lost three points at the end of the day.
Magath rated is as a poor decision and was furious on the officials. He claimed that he had seen the replays and the player was definitely on-side when he headed the ball.
The former Schalke tactician questioned the ability of the officials and insisted that its decisions like these which force the clubs to talk about TV-evidence. He insisted that if four referees are unable to make a decision rightly,
then technology should definitely be used.
“A disastrous referee decision. I have seen of the bank, which has not been seen by four referees. If only four referees are not sufficient to assess a situation correctly, you should finally think about the TV evidence,” the manager
was quoted as saying in an interview.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Patrick-c29254 Helmes also claimed that he was sure of not being ahead of the defender which is why he headed the ball in the empty net.
“I knew immediately that I was not offside. That's why I cheered. If we take the lead, three points would have been realistic. With a guide it is easier to play against Bayern,” the forward added.
Wolfsburg will next face Borussia Monchengladbach on Friday, August 19.
