'Very clear foul from Benzema': Pochettino blames referee for PSG's defeat

PSG collapsed to a 3-1 defeat in Madrid, crashing out of the Champions League.

And the Parisians head coach Mauricio Pochettino thinks officiating is to blame for his team's loss.

“When you concede a goal like we did, the game changes, the state of mind in the stadium as well," Poch said, as quoted by GFFN.

"The supporters carried their team, everything changed.

"It’s incredible that the foul on Donnarumma wasn’t looked over by VAR. It’s a very clear foul from Benzema for me. Every angle shows that it was a foul. I don’t understand why VAR wasn’t used at that moment.

"Qualification was decided in the ten minutes. We were the best team over the two games. Football is about managing match moments well. It’s true that we’ve collapsed a bit. It’s impossible to explain."

Benzema pressed Donnarumma, forcing him into losing the ball that was picked by Vinicius. Vini played Benzema who scored Madrid's equaliser.

Yeah Poch. Cry me a river.
