Bayern Munich defender Josip Stanišić had a tough go during his team’s 4-3 (6-4 on aggregate) win over Real Madrid in the Champions League.
The Croatian needed to leave the game after halftime due to an injury sustained after a collision with Real Madrid defender Antonio Rüdiger. The play, which ended up resulting in a goal for Real Madrid, stung Bayern Munich in both ways as it could have easily been called a foul on Rüdiger — preventing the goal from counting.
As Stanišić was down in pain, he said that Rüdiger said something to him after kicking him while he was down. Whatever it was, Stanišić was offended and did not want to repeat it.
“I don’t need to talk about what happened when I was on the ground. You can ask him, but in my opinion it’s completely unacceptable. Only one word was spoken, twice — you can ask him yourself — maybe he’s man enough to admit it. I don’t want to say anything because I’m not someone who wants bad blood. I don’t take it personally. It happens in the heat of the moment. But I don’t think it’s acceptable,” Stanišić told Kicker (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Rüdiger is no stranger to crossing the line, so it is an open canvas as to what might have been said to get Stanišić so bothered.
It seems as if the Croatian wants to publicly bury this now, but the bad blood will likely remain.
