Dortmund’s Jude Bellingham fined Rs 34 lakhs for ‘match-fixing’ remark against referee

Jude Bellingham has avoided a ban, for voicing his frustration over the standard of officiating in the Klassiker clash.

Borussia Dortmund's Jude Bellingham on Tuesday has been handed a EUR40,000 (Rs 34 lakhs approx) fine by the German Football Association (DFB) after his "match-fixing" remarks against the referee Felix Zwayer, after his team 3-2 defeat by Bayern Munich.

However, the 18-year-old England international has avoided a ban, for voicing his frustration over the standard of officiating in the Klassiker clash.

Zwayer was the referee in the Der Klassiker as Bayern Munich edged Dortmund at Westfalenstadion on Saturday. Robert Lewandowski grabbed the winning goal from the penalty spot which didn't go well with the English international Bellingham. "For me, it wasn't [a penalty]," Bellingham told reporters after the game, as per goal.com.
