[Saba Sports News] In the 33rd matchday of the Bundesliga, Wolfsburg suffered a narrow 0-1 home defeat to Bayern Munich. Harry Kane missed a penalty in the game, and media footage captured Wolfsburg player Jeanuël Belocian tampering with the penalty spot before Kane took the spot kick. After the match, Belocian was asked about the incident in an interview and admitted he had deliberately damaged the penalty spot: “Yes, it was straightforward.” He declined to elaborate further on the matter. Meanwhile, Bayern Munich goalkeeper Urbich commented: “Everything is on the line for Wolfsburg right now. That’s why I’m not upset about someone tampering with the penalty spot. At the end of the day, it’s all about their survival in the league.”
The editor believes that these are certainly dirty little tricks, but when you are stuck in the relegation battle, you may feel forced to resort to such tactics. We all know Wolfsburg are fighting hard to avoid relegation and stay in the Bundesliga. Even so, I believe this was an unnecessary move. I firmly believe that no matter how high the stakes are, everyone should abide by the principles of fair play.
