Dortmund - Malaga [View all]
Holy crap, what a finish! I'm actually glad I was fairly neutral in this one. Malaga fans must feel absolutely gutted.
Nobody else seems to have noticed it, but that first Dortmund goal was an own-goal, I think. It's hard to see at normal speed because both players have pink boots, but I think it was actually the Malaga player who shot it into his own net.
There was some controversy over the winning goal being off-side, but I haven't seen an angle confirming that. I know the final touch couldn't have been from an off-side position because there was a Malaga player behind the goal and the keeper was in front of the goalscorer. This was similar to the van Nistlerooy goal scored in the Euro's a few years back for Holland against Italy, where an Italian was far behind the goalline which had meant Van Nistlerooy was on-side but looked off-side.
In any case, Malaga's second certainly was off-side, so they shouldn't have any complaints. Their owner is already making an ass of himself in a series of angry tweets alleging racist conspiracies at UEFA. What a low-class buffoon.
I was complaining about boring interviews a few days ago. I liked this one:
