Antonio Rudiger expressed his gratitude to the VAR monitor in a lighthearted moment as he left the Santiago Bernabeu pitch following Real Madrid's victory over Bayern Munich on Wednesday night, recent footage reveals.
Real Madrid secured a 2-1 win over Bayern Munich, advancing to the Champions League final amidst a game filled with crucial decisions aided by the VAR.
One pivotal moment occurred when Joselu's apparent offside goal, which initially had been disallowed, was later deemed valid following a video assistant referee review, sealing Real Madrid's victory in the 91st minute.
Another significant VAR intervention arose when Matthijs de Ligt's stoppage-time goal, which would have equalized the score, was ultimately ruled out for offside.
However, amidst these contentious moments, Antonio Rudiger's gesture towards the VAR monitor caught the attention. Video footage captured Rudiger leaning towards the pitchside VAR monitor, patting it as he exited the field.
While the camera angle leaves some ambiguity, it remains uncertain whether Rudiger's action was a mere gesture or if it hinted at a more affectionate embrace.Clearly overcome with excitement, Rudiger vocalized his enthusiasm with shouts of 'Vamos' directed towards the fans and himself as he made his way down the tunnel, leaving an unforgettable mark on the event.
