The German goalkeeper, figure of the party until this moment, failed when trying retain a shot of Vinicius from the side without apparent danger. The balloon hammered before falling him to the '1' in the gloves and Neuer finish leaving a rebound that Joselu no desaprovechó to equalise the actions in the 88'.

Neuer Did a 'Karius' in the most inopportune moment

The failure of Neuer remembered to other 'sung' monumental of goalkeepers in favour of the 'White House'. The most remembered, definitely, the one of Loris Karius in the final of Kiev in 2018. The German goalkeeper made a mistake by double game in the complement, propiciando the goals of Karim Benzema (1-0 in the 51') and of Gareth Bleat (3-1 in the 84') that gave him the thirteenth 'orejona' to the group 'merengue'.

Way to this final, the whites had deleted to the Bayern in 'semis' thanks to a terrible failure of Sven Ulreich at all more begin the second part. The experienced goalkeeper germano failed when trying go out, leaving the balloon served to Benzema to put the 2-1 partial. The duel finish equalised (2-2), but the global favoured to the ones of Zinedine Zidane by the 1-2 achieved in Munich.

It does a pair of years, in the first of the three traced back of the Madrid in 2022 way to the fourteenth, Gianluigi Donnarumma did something similar to Neuer this Wednesday with a failure inexplicable that opened the door to the reaction of the ones of Carlo Ancelotti. The Italian slept when trying go out by low, allowing the recovery of a Vinicius that took advantage of to enable to Benzema. The 'hat trick' of the '9' in alone 17 minutes, giving gone back to an eliminatory in front of the PSG in which they fell by two goals (3-1).

The 'favours' referee's never are missing to the Madrid in these instances

However, the epic went back to see blurred by the controversy. The error of the judge of line on the end added to the list of countless referee's failures in the Champions in favour of the whites. The Bayern, for example, already had suffered to the already withdrawn Viktor Kassai in the chambers of 2017. The Hungarian expelled to Arturo Vidal in the complement by a non-existent fault and, in the extention, validated two goals of Cristiano Ronaldo in clear offside.

A year later, the Juventus was the victim 'merengue' with a penalti pitado by Michael Oliver in the discount. The English signalled a non-existent push of Benatia on Lucas Vázquez that finish with Gianluigi Buffon expelled for protesting. 'CR7' converted in front of Wojciech Szczęsny and the Madrid rid to play the extention thanks to a defeat by 1-3 that deserved to finish in a goleada scandalous.

And, in the 'semis' of 2018, again the Bavarians suffered the parcialidad referee's in favour of the 'merengues' when seeing how the referee Cüneyt Çakir denied him a penalti to the visitors by a very clear hand of Marcelo in the area. The Turkish and the judge of line overlooked the hand of the Brazilian to a centre of Joshua Kimmich in the first part that would have given opportunity to the muniqueses to advance . In the Champions 2023/24, the RB Leipzig also was prejudiced in the two duels of eighth, with two goals cancelled that facilitated the classification 'merengue'.
