The referee 'killed' the match: Xavi


 The referee 'killed' the match: Xavi


Javi Hernandez can't accept the result of the match. How to obey? 4-2 lead on aggregate. From there, he conceded four more goals and was eliminated from the quarter-finals of the Champions League. After a few days, he will say goodbye to his beloved club.


When he left in 2015, he left the club on a high. It was under his captaincy that Barca won their last Champions League title. Then he got back a ruined house as a coach. That team won the league title last year. This time there was a chance to take the last four of the Champions League. But that dream ended after losing to PSG.


 Xavi might have accepted the loss, had it not been for the controversy over the referee. But at the end of the Barca-PSG second leg match, Romanian referee Istvan Kovacs is the center of discussion! In the 29th minute, Barca's defense leader, Ronald Araujo, was shown a straight red card.



After seeing the VAR in the 64th minute, Barca rejected the penalty appeal. Xavi was angry with that decision. The referee then showed him a red card as well. Goalkeeper coach Roman de la Fuente was with him.


At the end of the match, Xavi got angry at Istvan Kovacs, "We are angry. The red card did the damage. We were well organized in 11 vs 11. That completely changed everything. In my opinion, it was excessive to show Arauho a red card.


He magnifies Arauho's red card behind the loss of the match, "It is not a good thing to become 10 people. From that moment it became a different match. If the match talks, we will understand that it was actually the deciding factor of everything.


 Xavi even called the referee at the end of the match and gave him a harsh word, "The referee was really bad." I told him, he caused disaster. He ended the fight. I don't like talking about the referee, but it has to be said.'


 Xavi, angered by the refereeing, kicked the advertising board in the second half and saw himself red carded. However, the former midfield maestra accepted it right. "It was my mistake," Xavi said about his red card. The fault is mine.
