Henry Winter, a journalist at The Times, praised Tuchel’s commitment and coaching skills, but thought the German had gone too far in his remarks.

– He was right about Taylor making two weak decisions on Sunday. Refereeing standards need to be improved but Tuchel crossed the line when he accused Taylor of bias and accusations of foul play were inevitable, Winter claimed on Twitter.

Football journalists believe that such statements are dangerous in terms of the recruitment of referees in grassroots football.

– Together with (Michael) Oliver, Taylor is the best referee. He is respected by UEFA and FIFA, and he will referee at the World Cup. Tuchel’s criticism of Taylor hurt all referees, Winter wrote.
