"We are viewing the developments of the past few weeks with concern. The performance in Leverkusen was the culmination of a phase in which we were repeatedly confronted with questionable decisions. Whether at HSV, in Dortmund or in Leverkusen - there were just repeatedly controversial scenes that often went against us."
"The DFB is called upon to improve the level of performance of its referees. That Christian Dingert admits his mistake is honorable, but that alone doesn't help us."
Bayern Munich formally appealed Luis Díaz's suspension following his controversial red card during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen. Referee Christian Dingert sent off the Colombian winger for diving but later admitted the call was incorrect. Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen expressed frustration about a pattern of questionable refereeing decisions affecting the club in recent weeks, citing incidents at HSV, Dortmund, and Leverkusen. While acknowledging Dingert's honesty in admitting the error, Dreesen emphasized that the admission alone does not resolve the issue and called for improved referee performance standards from the DFB. The club's appeal outcome remains uncertain.
