Bayern Munich defender Philipp Lahm has said that he would never allow himself to get into the situation that John Terry currently faces.
The two sides meet in the Champions League final on Saturday although the Chelsea captain will miss out on the match due to being sent off in the semi-final second leg against Barcelona.
"I couldn't believe it. I was so surprised, not by the red card but what he did to earn it," said Lahm.
"Would I describe it as irresponsible? Let's just say I would never have done something like that. It simply wouldn't have happened to me. Why? Because as captain, I do everything for my team. That would have harmed them and I would not allow that to happen.
"But that's down to him. Our only focus is on winning and we are not too interested in who might be playing for Chelsea or who might not be."
The final kicks off at Bayern's Allianz Arena on Saturday at 6pm (GMT).
