Guendouzi, who plays for Fenerbahçe, was seen giving a middle finger to the French fans during the warm-up for the match. He was also involved in a scuffle after the game. In the mixed zone, Guendouzi stated that the fans had been disrespecting his family for 90 minutes, including during the warm-up. "Negentig minuten lang, zelfs tijdens de warming-up, hebben ze mijn familie beledigd. Dat raakt me," he said, as quoted by RMC Sport. Guendouzi's comments have sparked criticism from Lyon's captain, Corentin Tolisso, who said that Guendouzi should have celebrated with his team and remained humble.
