He highlighted mistakes leading to a red card (Ronald Araújo), the penalty conceded (Joao Cancelo), and the defending for Vitinha’s goal (Robert Lewandowski).
According to AS, the squad’s response has been less vehement compared to Gundogan’s previous criticism after losing to Real Madrid earlier in the season. Several teammates have actually supported his comments, underscoring the impact of the PSG defeat on the team.
Gundogan has not been asked to retract or soften his remarks, nor has he needed to explain himself to the team as he did after the Real Madrid match.
Gundogan’s inner circle has defended him by stating that his outspoken nature is simply his style, direct and honest, and not meant to call out or criticize a teammate.
