In the early morning of March 10, Beijing time, the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 knockout round real madrid against Paris Saint-Germain was played at the Bernabeu Stadium, and Real Madrid, who fell behind 0-1 in the first leg, reversed the total score 3-2 with the hat trick played by Benzema, eliminating Paris to advance to the top 8. Perhaps seeing the team reverse in a good situation, resulting in an imbalance of mentality, Paris president Nasser and director Leonardo clashed with the referee after the game, and Nasser also made death threats to a Real Madrid staff member.
In the first leg, Paris relied on Kylian Mbappe's deadlock to take a 1-0 lead on aggregate. Despite news of Kylian Mbappe's injury before the match, the France international started and scored first for the team at the Santiago Bernabeu, when Paris already had an aggregate 2-0 lead. It can be said that the balance of advancing to the top 8 has been tilted to Paris by more than half.
However, football is fascinating because there are too many classic examples of reversals. Real Madrid, who are 2 goals behind, are not discouraged, they are still playing steadily, Benzema directly under the gods, scoring 3 goals in a row to help the team reverse, Real Madrid eliminated Paris 3-2 on aggregate.
Seeing that the team was eliminated in a good situation and the dream of winning the Champions League was once again shattered, Paris president Nasser and director Leonardo were seriously out of shape, and they went to the dressing room to theorize with the referee on duty, and there was also a conflict.
According to Kobe Radio, Nasser and Leonardo rushed directly to the referee's locker room after the game, asking why the referee did not blow the foul on Benzema on Donnarumma, and the two sides had a fierce verbal conflict, which escalated into a physical conflict, and finally someone called the police.
During the clash between Nasser and the referee, a Real Madrid staff member filmed the whole process. When Nasser found out, he directly threatened the Real Madrid staff member with words "I will kill you", while Leonardo asked the other party to delete the video.
According to the latest reports in the Spanish media, the video of Nasser clashing with the referee was not only not deleted, but UEFA also asked Real Madrid for the video. UEFA will study the video tomorrow to determine whether Nasser and Leonardo's actions are serious violations, and once UEFA determines that the two have violated the rules, it may issue a heavy fine.
Times editor-in-chief Martyn Ziegler also commented on the matter: If the report is true, Nasser will be disgraced, bearing in mind that he is also the UEFA executive board and ECA president.
