“Embarrassing” – Joe Marler responds to footballer’s controversial referee comments

Jude Bellingham questioned the referee appointment of Felix Zwayer after Borussia Dortmund’s 3-2 Bundesliga defeat by Bayern Munich.

Zwayer rejected Dortmund’s appeals for a penalty before giving their rivals a spot-kick for a Mats Hummels handball. Striker Robert Lewandowski stepped up to score Bayern’s winner against his old club.

“You give a referee, that has match fixed before, the biggest game in Germany, what do you expect?” said Bellingham, 18.

Joe Marler was one of the famous figures to respond the midfielders comments, posting a simple emoji that sums up his feeling on the situation.

According to the Daily Telegraph in 2020, his eligibility prompted coach Eddie Jones to start investigating whether he could be convinced to represent England. Born and raised in New Zealand, he also qualifies for Fiji though his father and England though his mother.

Blues flanker Sotutu, 23, has won 10 caps for the All Blacks, the last of those coming against Italy in November.
