Felix Zwayer insults as a clown: the referee was shocking

The German referee Felix Zwayer has shown the red card at the quarter-final first leg in the Europa League between West Ham United and Olympique Lyon (1: 1) Defender Aaron Cresswell. Subsequently, the 40-year-old had to be criticized.

"I can not believe it. The referee was shocking," weathered the former Premier League Professional Jason Cundy (among other things FC Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur) at Talksport and called Zwayer as "clown".

The impartial had made Hammer's defender Cresswell in the first half of the first half, after this Lyon striker had stopped Moussa Dembele with a supposed emergency brake. Despite amendments, West Ham went in the 52nd minute by Jarrod Bowen, 14 minutes later, Tanguy Ndombele for the French.

"That was not a foul and of course not a red card," Cundy said. West Hams coach David Moyes also complained about Zwayer during the game, but wanted to express himself after the final whistle "all and not" to the referee.

Zwayer is regularly in criticism in Germany. In December, BVB-Youngster Jew Bellingham attacked the Schiri after a 2-3 bone of Borussia Dortmund against FC Bayern verbally attacked.

"One gives a referee who has ever shifted games, the largest game in Germany. What do you expect?" The Englishman had scolded and played on the affair around Robert Hoyzer.

Bellingham was then occupied by a fine of 40,000 euros. One of Zwayer's desired pronunciation with Bellingham did not come how the impartial revealed last week.

"I'd like to understand why he does that and where it comes from. I do not think he has a very close own relationship with the 2004 processes. That's why I wanted to talk to him," Zwayer had said in the _zdf_sportstudio.
