Bayern Munich appeals Luis Díaz's red card after referee's confession
Luis Díaz had one of his strangest matches as a professional on March 14, where Bayern Munich drew 1-1 with Bayer Leverkusen in the 26th round of the Bundesliga, as the Colombian scored a goal, made an error in the rivals' goal, delivered a dangerous kick, was sent off for simulation, and finally, was chosen as the man of the match.
