Ianis Hagi went on accusations after Rangers was eliminated from the Europa League: “Clear Penalty”

The Gers lost the qualification in the Europa League semifinal. Ianis Hagi played 94 minutes in the tour match (score 0-0) and only one half in the return from San Mames (score 2-0) and reacted to a phase of the first minutes of the second match.

In the first half, at 0-0, with Ianis Hagi on the field, Cyriel Dessers, Rangers' striker, was pulled by the T-shirt by Yeray Alvarez. The Basque player broke Dessers's equipment, but the “central” did not dictate a penalty.

“Disappointing, of course. I think they played better than us, I have to admit, but in the 15th minute, you have a clear penalty. I think it would have helped us, it would have put us in advantage. That meant we would have won the match? No.

But he is disappointing, and then they started playing much better and I think they were worth the victory in the end.

At this level, the small details make the difference and that was a big detail. Disappointment exists, nervousness, but that's because we could play better.

I think Bilbao for 90 minutes were better than us, but that does not make the penalty incident disappear, correctly?

And upset because it was an important chance to win a trophy and we didn't succeed so …

We will not hide the fact that we were under expectations this season, this is the reality, but that does not mean that we have to neglect the last 5 matches. We have to go to win them, “said Ianis Hagi, according to Gazetteherald.co.uk.

Rangers lost the championship in Scotland in front of Celtic rivals and were eliminated from the quarterfinals in the Europa League. For The Gers there are 5 matches in Premiership, one of them even with Celtic, but without stake.
