In the 8th week of the Germany Bundesliga 2, a match between Magdeburg and Greuther Fürth featured two controversial penalty situations.
THOUGHT IT WAS A THROW-IN AND TOOK THE BALL WITH HIS HAND In the 13th minute, Greuther Fürth goalkeeper Nahuel Noll, who was positioned on the goal line, took the ball with his hands after it had been airborne in the opponent's penalty area. After waiting for a while, he played the ball back into play. Jung, who thought the ball had gone out, controlled the pass given to him by the goalkeeper with his hands inside the penalty area, and the referee blew the whistle for a penalty. In the 15th minute, although goalkeeper Noll saved the shot taken by Mohamed El Hankouri, he could not prevent the rebound from becoming a goal.

In the 41st minute, during a duel outside the Magdeburg penalty area, the home team's defender Daniel Heber, who thought the situation was a foul, took the ball with his hands inside the penalty area without waiting for the referee's whistle, resulting in a penalty. Julian Green, who stepped up to take the penalty in the 42nd minute, converted it into a goal. The other goals in the match, which ended 2-2, came from Martijn Kaars for Magdeburg in the 18th minute, while Noel Futkeu shook the net for Greuther Fürth in the 75th minute.
