‘Gigantische blunder Kuipers in EK-finale’

Björn Kuipers kreeg zondagavond tijdens de reguliere speeltijd veel lof toegezwaaid, maar in de verlenging van de EK-finale lijkt de scheidsrechter een grote fout te hebben gemaakt. Fans stellen massaal dat de Nederlander de Italiaanse middenvelder Jorginho met rood had moeten wegsturen tegen Engeland. Sommigen vinden zelfs dat óók Giorgio Chiellini rood had verdiend.

Een greep uit de Twitter-reacties:

Oehhh… Kuipers.. En VAR, dit is gewoon rood voor Jorginho.. #ITAENG #Euro2020Final Niet dus. Fout. ?

Die #Kuipers fluit in eigen land wel anders.

In het buitenland is rood geel. In Nederland geldt dat geel rood is.

Neen, Kuifje heeft mijn voorkeur niet.#ENGITA #vitesse #mijnvitesse

That’s a stonewall red for me ?

Kuipers has had a good game so far but sense of him not wanting to ruin the finale there. #Euro2020Final #ENGITA

Boring Bjorn Kuipers has made a stack of puzzling decisions – but he’s carried out his brief – no red cards Bjorn.

Not enough Grealish blood for Bjorn Kuipers to give a red on Jorginho.

As they told that penalty with Denmark was not deserved but chielini red card was very well deserved and penalty but Kuipers is not flying dutch but blind dutch.

Kuipers has been excellent until now, but this should’ve been a red for Jorginho.

Fallo su #Grealish da espulsione piena per #Jorginho ma #Kuipers, l’arbitro al soldo del truce #Ceferin per far vincere l’#Inghilterra, grazia l’azzurro dandogli solo il giallo (e il #VAR zitto). Per la serie: i famosi complotti all’amatriciana.#ItaliaInghilterra pic.twitter.com/FgnH9i1q8N

Biggest talking points for me is how Chiellini and Jorginho are still on the pitch for Italy? Absolutely shocking conduct from them and the referee has bottled it by not showing red cards.#EURO2020 #Euro2020Final pic.twitter.com/MXT3Xw6P4G

Italy’s best penalty taker Jorginho not being sent off for a horrendous, blatantly red card, challenge. Topping off a very poor night for the referee.

— Michael Nairn (@mickynairn) July 11, 2021

That’s a clear red card to Jorginho. This referee has not been fair to England.

— Ivan 29th July ??? (@Mrbelgium1) July 11, 2021

I think this referee deserves a decent slap for not showing Chiellini a straight red card for that disgusting pull. Where the hell is the fair play? ?‍♂️ #Euro2020Final pic.twitter.com/2maayljhM6
