"What I'm incredibly fuming with is how the hell the penalty on Ebs gets overturned in the manner that it happened when there is no clear and obvious error. This changes the course of the game."
"A very clear explanation of the decision is what happens for a period of time [when] a referee has to watch it 13 times. What's more clear than that? It's impossible and we are all fuming about it."
"When you have fought so hard for nine months to be in this position I mean, that's another goal that changed completely the course of the tie. And it cannot happen."
