Bayern
Munich manager Pep Guardiola has claimed Juventus are "too big of a
club to complain" about a disallowed goal in the ' 4-2
come-from-behind defeat of Juventus.
Juventus director Beppe
Marotta slammed match officials for disallowing what appeared to be a
legitimate Alvaro Morata goal in the first half of his side's Champions
League-ending defeat at Bayern Munich on Wednesday.
Despite
successfully chipping Neuer, the Spain international was adjudged to
have been offsides. But upon further review, he appeared to be in a
legal position. "The
Alvaro Morata disallowed goal would've changed the face of the match.
Certain errors at this level are costly, they make a big difference,"
Marotta told Mediaset Premium.
"I am not here to seek alibis, but I
hope that in future Italian football is better protected. Certain
refereeing performances are painful.
Upon hearing of Marotta's
comments, Guardiola shot back, telling reporters the complaints were
beneath a club of Juventus' stature.
"Juventus are too big a club
to complain about this," Guardiola said after the match. "When you lose,
you shake hands and go home. You compliment the opposition.
"They had chances and scored twice. Perhaps the goal was not offside, but these things happen in football
