For once, it’s Marwin Hitz asking the questions in the mixed zone. “How did you see the penalty kick scene?” the FCB goalkeeper asks the journalists present. The answer is unanimous: a joke! FCZ player Bledian Krasniqi looks for the penalty in an almost laughable way, but referee Dudic nevertheless points to the spot without hesitation.
You can make wrong decisions, that is after all everywhere and part of it. But there has to be a general line, says Hitz. And when it comes to Super League referees, he launches a devastating attack: “I think we have a problem. You shouldn’t compare yourself to the Bundesliga or England. But the fact that Swiss teams often do poorly internationally also has to do with the fact that the whistle is different in this country.”
Dudic complicit in escalation?
Hitz cites the time game as an example: “In Switzerland, action is taken only after the 80th minute. But wasting time is also punishable in the first half, isn’t it? Do you also see a clear line when it comes to how duels are called?” It’s a rhetorical question.
Dudic’s performance was one of the reasons why the game, which was peaceful in itself, eventually escalated. With Adams, Xhaka and Burger, three FCB players are thrown off the field after attacks, before a pack forms. “The red cards are not necessary at all. Not only for now, but because it will lead to bans. But here too: you could prevent that more vigorously. The whole thing also happens due to a wrong decision, “says Hitz and focuses again on the penalty scene: “It was a joke penalty and it should be a criminal offense to want to fall like that.”
His trainer Heiko Vogel also sees it that way. However, he does not want to comment on the press conference: “Today I am my own lawyer. If I say something to the referee, I will be suspended for 50 years.”
Hitz is full of praise for the German ex-referee
Marwin Hitz then solves the problem himself after the classic. In an interview with SRF, the former Bundesliga player says: “There is someone who could help: Manuel Gräfe was one of the best referees.” Gräfe was a German professional referee until 2021. “He also made bad decisions, but he always had personality, charisma and a clear line from the first to the last minute.” And that is what football and the spectators need, according to Hitz.
