I'm not excusing Degenkolb, but I said at the time he'd be annoyed. Matthews jumps from GVA's wheel and Degenkolb went with him and Matthews closes the door on him by steadily veering to the right. Probably clever as it didn't raise the ire of the commissaires, and any relegation would have been OTT, but it was either sloppy sprinting by not holding his line, or gamesmanship. Degenkolb is entitled to have a moan, but not put his hands on Matthews.
