BVB Profi Hummels criticizes Var: "Now it will be completely pointless"

The game between the 1st FSV Mainz 05 and Bayer 04 Leverkusen offered plenty of conversation. Even with actors, which were not on the lawn. BVB defender Mats Hummels saw himself to clearly criticize the VaR.

In a wild game on Friday night, Karim Onisiwo ensured the alleged 2: 1 for the Rhine Hesse in the 60th minute. But then suddenly the Cologne cellar and referee Benjamin Cortus revealed the hit ultimately back, because Moussa Niakhaté was offside.

An extremely disputed decision from the perspective of the hosts, as the central defender did not influence any opponent, though he tried to actively get the ball. The view of Keeper Lukas Hradecky was not influenced by Niakhaté either. But the sole attempt to reach the ball reached Cortus to decide on punishable away.

This also brought Mats Hummels from Borussia Dortmund to the palm tree. The BVB defender obviously pursued the game on the TV and was shocked by the decision. "Now it will be completely pointless with the Var," wrote the 33-year-old on Twitter.

In addition to criticism of BVB-Star Mats Hummels: Also FSV Mainz is not satisfied

In the end, this withdrawn hits did not matter because Mainz won the game thanks to a strong final track with 3: 2, satisfaction still did not prevail. "In my opinion, he is in the passive away, he does not intervene directly into the game," explained Mats Hummelss director Martin Schmidt to "Dazn" his view of things.

Midfielder Dominik Kohr emphasized that Cortus already showed "not the best performance" in the first half and did not decide "very one-sided". "In the second half he then caught and the 50: 50 situations also decided for us."
