Did Antonio Rudiger bite Paul Pogba during Frances win against Germany?
Antonio Rudiger has been accused of biting Paul Pogba during Frances 1-0 victory against Germany on Tuesday evening. Pogba played a crucial role in Frances winner, with a wonderfully flighted through ball setting up Lucas Hernandez, whose cross was inadvertently turned into the net by Mats Hummels. However, only minutes later, Pogba appeared incensed after a coming together with Rudiger and complained passionately to the assistant referee. Replays revealed that Rudiger appeared to bite the French midfielders shirt in an attempt to aggravate him. Speaking on ITV, Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira were both bemused by the German centre-backs behaviour. A silly thing to do, Keane said. Vieira said: When you see the Pogba reaction, he felt like a bite. I do not understand what he was trying to do that.  No action was taken by the referee or VAR, however, Uefa could still decide to look into the incident. Pogba may also face sanctions from Uefa after breaching Covid protocols by interacting with fans at the Allianz Arena after the final whistle.
