Swedish national defender Ludwig Augustinsson started on Saturday against Schalke 04 and played until Werder Bremen’s 2-0 goal in the 37th minute of the game. In addition, it also came into focus, due to another incident, in the first half.
Augustinsson advanced in the 26th minute, with the ball on the left side, but then went to the entrance of Schalke defender Ozan Kabak, who later, according to German newspapers Bild och Kicker, spat on the Swede. You can also watch television pictures of the match. However, Kabak was not penalized for spitting and then had to continue playing in the match.
Kicker and Bild also wrote that it is not entirely certain that Kabak deliberately spit towards the left side, but that it is clear that the player spit, something the head referee probably did not pay attention to.
– He spat. You can see it very clearly. It is very unsportsmanlike behavior. This is the worst. I hope it has consequences, said the German icon and television expert. Lothar Matthäus according to Bild during the halftime break.
In the second half, Bremen also rose to 3-0 through Niclas Fullkrug, who thus became a three-goal scorer in the match, while Kabak, in the 84th minute, collected his second yellow card and was sent off. . Schalke then came down to extra time, but despite that, Bremen won 3-1 and salvaged the first win of the season.
After the game, Augustinsson also commented on the “spit attack.”
– It’s not cute, it has nothing to do with football. I did not realize. In the end, he got a red card and we won, he tells Sky.
Schalke coach David Wagner on the event:
– I know Ozan. I am one hundred percent convinced that it was not intentional. It does not have that character. It looks like this, but I don’t believe in it. Ozan is not a person who deliberately spits on opponents, he says according to German Sky.
Augustinsson’s Bremen now have three points after two games played this year in the Bundesliga. The Swede is also on the list of three assists in three games this year in Germany.
