Emre Can rages at "arrogant" ref and claims he was "afraid" of Chelsea fans

Emre Can has taken aim at referee Danny Makkelie after Borussia Dortmund were dumped out of the Champions League.

The Germans were unable to hold onto their 1-0 first-leg lead in west London as Chelsea won 2-0 on the night to advance into the last eight. Their crucial second goal was filled with controversy though as Kai Havertz scored from the spot - after he was allowed to retake his initial effort.

Chelsea's playmaker saw his first effort come off the post, but was allowed to retake it after VAR ruled that a Dortmund player had encroached. He dispatched the second effort, much to the anger of the visiting players, who also took issue with the awarding of the penalty - again assisted by VAR.
