What had happened? In the 27th minute, the 30-year-old tackled Jae-Sung Lee in front of his own penalty area and cleared the South Korean with an open sole at ankle height.
Referee Florian Badstübner immediately pulled out the red box – an absolutely justifiable decision that Can accepted without complaining. Rather, he immediately raised his arms in apology.

The BVB captain then trotted into the dressing room with his head bowed. However, Nico Schlotterbeck, who complained and received a yellow card, didn't want to believe it.

BVB were lucky with the following free kick when Lee headed straight into the arms of Alexander Meyer, who was powerless to deal with a header from Lee in the 36th minute.
Nevertheless, BVB managed to equalize when they were outnumbered: Serhou Guirassy converted a penalty kick given to him in the 40th minute. This time in the role of the culprit: Lee! However, in stoppage time of the first half, Jonathan Burkardt gave the home team a 2-1 lead.
