Andrich slams handball call as Germany concede late
The Straits Times|November 21, 2024
Robert Andrich criticised the handball rule after Germany conceded a stoppage-time equaliser from the penalty spot and had to settle for a 1-1 draw at Hungary in their final Nations League group match on Nov 19.

Hungary's Dominik Szoboszlai scored from the spot with the last kick of the game to cancel out Felix Nmecha's 76th-minute goal. The hosts already had a place in the League A/B play-offs.

Germany had sealed top spot in Group A3 with the 7-0 demolition of Bosnia and Herzegovina on Nov 16, so coach Julian Nagelsmann rotated heavily with nine changes to his line-up in Hungary.

Said Nagelsmann: "We did some things right and some other things not. After winning 7-0 (against Bosnia and Herzegovina) and with nine changes, we took some time to get organised.

"But you have to look at the big picture. If you see how Hungary celebrated the equaliser then it is a compliment to our team."
