Bayern Munich defender Hernandez: Barcelona winger Dembele deserved penalty

Bayern Munich defender Lucas Hernandez admits Ousmane Dembele deserved a penalty for Barcelona last night.

Hernandez scored in Bayern's 2-0 Champions League win on Tuesday.

The former Atletico Madrid defender admits a foul by Alphonse Davies on Dembele was deserving of a penalty for the Blaugrana.

Speaking to Cadena SER, he described the action as a "penalty" after a question from former referee Iturralde González, who explained that the foul was clear. The defender first tried to deny it, "now you got me", but then he reacted by replying that "it's a penalty, Itu".

The Bayern defender also rejected the domination in possession of Barca: "You can talk all you want, but the result is what it is."
