In the first round of the Champions League stage, Real Madrid defeated Marseille 2-1. In the 81st minute, Medina was awarded a penalty for handball. Marseille coach Dezelby angrily criticized the penalty at a press conference after the game.

Dzeelby: I don't think it's a penalty, it's shameful, and I regret it. Even if this happened to our team, I will say that. To me, this is definitely not a penalty, absolutely not. Is this (referee) looking for a make-up? No...I mean the penalty is shameful, I don't want to say it's a make-up, I just simply think it's not a penalty. I don't want to connect this with what happened when we were against Real Sociedad.

In addition, when talking about Carvajal's red card, Dezelby believed that he should not be sent off by a red card.
