Don't blame the referee - Bayern boss Heynckes sends warning to RB Leipzig

The Munich manager has advised his upcoming opponents to move on from their midweek defeat to Bayern in the DFB-Pokal

Jupp Heynckes has told RB Leipzig to focus on their own performance and not refereeing controversies ahead of a trip to face his Bayern Munich side on Saturday.

Bayern edged past Leipzig on penalties after their DFB-Pokal tie in midweek finished 1-1.

Leipzig director of football Ralf Rangnick sparked controversy by trying to confront Felix Zwayer after the referee blew for half-time, brandishing his mobile phone to show a replay of an incident in which his team were denied a penalty.
