Sports Bible, a sports media outlet, reported on the 11th (Korea Standard Time) that "Saudi Arabia's fans are being criticized for their lack of manners in the process of dedicating them to Franz Beckenbauer ahead of the match between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid."

Real Madrid defeated rival AT Madrid 5-3 after extra struggle in the semifinals of the 2023/24 season held at the KSU Stadium in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Sunday (Korea time). Saudi Arabian fans showed their ignorance before the start of the match.

AT Madrid took the lead early on with Mario Hermoso's opening goal. But Real responded quickly with Rudiger and Ferland Mendy scoring, and Antoine Griezmann equalized again with a brilliant shot just before the end of the first half.

Since then, Rudiger has disgraced himself with an own goal, and the eventful evening for Rudiger led to Real going into extra time with Dani Carvajal's goal in the 40th minute of the second half. In extra time, which was reminiscent of the 2014 Champions League final, Carlo Ancelotti led the way with Stefan Savic's own goal in the 11th minute of extra time, and Brahim Diaz sealed the victory 5-3 in the 2nd minute of extra time in the second half of extra time. 온라인카지노

However, fans inside the stadium were seen whistling and cheering during the one-minute silence in memory of Beckenbauer's death, and the reaction was chilly. "There was a disgusting scene where Saudi Arabia's fans were whistling during the one-minute silence for Franz Beckenbauer before the match between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid," one fan wrote on social media.

Another fan wrote, "This shocking scene is exactly why the Super Cup is being held in Saudi Arabia," "Why are you whistling?! Is there a reason?" and "This is completely disrespectful."

Announcing the death of the Bayern Munich legend, Beckenbauer's family said in a statement: "We are deeply saddened to announce that my husband and father, Franz Beckenbauer, passed away peacefully asleep surrounded by his family on Sunday. Please mourn quietly and refrain from asking questions."

However, Spanish media outlet Cadena Ser quoted a local journalist as saying that the booing had nothing to do with Beckenbauer. Cadena Ser said, "It has nothing to do with Beckenbauer, and it is a more cultural issue. It is a Saudi Arabian custom or tradition. One minute of silence here raises eyebrows."
