Bellingham says Camavinga red 'a joke' as Real fury grows

"Nobody understands how a player can be sent off for that.

"I think the referee took out the card because he did not know Camavinga was booked already, because it was up to Bayern's players to go and tell him it was the second card.

"It's a double mistake besides not knowing he already had a yellow. It ruined a match that was going really well, very evenly matched. It was at its peak. That was the end of the game."

Spanish journalist Juan Castro described the mood of those at Real as one of disbelief.

"People are very angry at the referee," he said. "They are very worried about what has happened in Munich. This will have consequences.

"The second yellow card to Camavinga, you cannot give it in a Champions League match at that moment, when both teams are level. You cannot give it.

"You could see all the players going against the referee. From Madrid's perspective, that decision shifted the balance to Bayern Munich."

Bayern Munich players react

Luis Diaz's thunderous strike came shortly after Camavinga's sending off, putting Bayern 5-4 ahead on aggregate before Michael Olise's sublime curler flew in off the post in the 94th minute to put the tie beyond doubt.

Speaking after the match, Diaz said he had a clear view of the Camavinga incident and backed the referee's call.

"I think the referee was right to send him off. We wanted to take the free-kick quickly and he didn't release the ball.

"Obviously, the red card really lifted our spirits and we said 'This has to be it - this is the moment', and that's exactly how it turned out.

"Games like this are decided by small details but we were already pushing and creating chances."

Bayern goalscorer Harry Kane focused on the importance of the win.

"Obviously the sending off helped us a little bit but we had to take our moments at the end of the game and with Lucho [Luis Diaz] and Mike [Olise], we did that."

European football governing body Uefa said its disciplinary body will review the referee's report before deciding whether any further action is required.

Bayern will face Paris St-Germain in the semi-finals, while the 15-time winners' exit is likely to be overshadowed by controversy around one of the defining decisions of the tie.
