The Real Madrid striker Lucas Vazquez defended referee Michael Oliver for a penalty kick for his team in the added time of a rematch against Juventus (1:3). It was Vazquez who suffered in the situation, saying he was overtaken by Medhi Benatia and the penalty was real.
`Was there a penalty? Yes. Cristiano took the ball to me and just shot, a defender ran and ran over from behind. There is no doubt that this is a penalty. Protests of Juve? That`s perfectly normal. Still happened at the last minute. This match advised by football betting odds must be a lesson to us. When we relax, we are punished. The Champions League does not forgive anyone. We had to suffer until the last minute, but we came to a goal that ranked us in the semifinals. Onto the draw? We must be ready for everyone and come out with the right motivation. We will reach the finish line!` Vazquez is convinced.
