Madrid: Bayern Munich left the Santiago Bernabeu furious with referee Viktor Kassai and his team of assistants after being knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid on Tuesday.
Real Madrid won 4-2 after extra-time to advance with a 6-3 aggregate success but Cristiano Ronaldo was offside for two of his three goals and a harsh dismissal for Arturo Vidal left a fuming Bayern with 10 men.
Chile midfielder Vidal was shown a second yellow card by Kassai in the 84th minute for what appeared a clean challenge on Marco Asensio, tilting the game in Madrid's favour as they entered extra-time trailing 2-1.
Ronaldo scored the next goal in the 105th minute from a clear offside position, and then sent Madrid 3-2 up on the night when fractionally offside.
"When they rob a game from you like that, it's very tough and harsh. This error cannot happen in Champions League," said Vidal.
"When it was 2-1 they got scared and the referee started putting on his show. We played with one less man at home and here, too. The referee put us out of the Champions League."
There were other contentious decisions, including Casemiro avoiding a red card for a late foul on Bayern's Arjen Robben when already booked and an offside against Robert Lewandowski in the second half when the Polish striker was well placed.
"It's very harsh, two offside goals, the red card for Casemiro before mine," said Vidal.
"The dressing room is very sad because we really wanted to go through but we have to keep improving and hope these things will not happen again. We're very angry, a game with that much intensity cannot be decided by the referee."
Meanwhile, Manuel Neuer is sidelined for the rest of the season after fracturing his left foot. The 31-year-old was injured in extra time during the build-up to Ronaldo's third goal.
"Manuel Neuer suffered a fracture to his left foot according to an initial diagnosis," the club said on their website. "Neuer will undergo a thorough examination on arrival in Munich prior to a decision on the appropriate treatment."
His Real Madrid counterpart Zinedine Zidane did not want to discuss the refereeing but he claimed Bayern's second goal could have also been ruled offside.
Lewandowski appeared to be fractionally offside in the build-up to Sergio Ramos's own goal, causing panic in the area before the defender prodded the ball past Keylor Navas.
"They have told me their second goal was also offside. It goes both ways, that is football," said Zidane.
In Leicester, Jamie Vardy scored in vain as Leicester City's fairy tale came to a valiant end following a 1-1 draw to Atletico Madrid. Seeking to overturn a 1-0 first-leg deficit, Leicester fell further behind to Saul Niguez's first-half header, before Vardy's 61st-minute strike gave them hope.
But despite heavy Leicester pressure , Atletico completed a 2-1 aggregate win to reach the semi-finals for the third time in four seasons.
