Uli Hoeneß, the honorary president of Bayern Munich, launched a sharp attack on the performance of the refereeing team in the team's match against Bayer Leverkusen, which ended in a 1-1 draw at the BayArena and saw the expulsion of both Nicolas Jackson and Luis Diaz.

Hoeneß described referee Christian Dingert's performance as "the worst refereeing performance I've seen in my career," noting that the decisions made during the match, from disallowing goals to issuing red cards, directly impacted the course of the game and its final result.

The honorary president of Bayern stated that the second dismissal of player Luis Diaz was unjustified, noting that the incident involved clear contact with the Leverkusen goalkeeper and did not warrant a yellow card, which sparked widespread controversy among the players and the club's technical staff.

Hoeneß's statements sparked significant reactions in sports circles, as many considered them to reflect the club's dissatisfaction with controversial refereeing decisions, especially in crucial matches within the German league.
