Roberto García Orozco revealed that two “brave parties” with America kept him from whistling him and he was even asked to change appointments
Former referee Roberto García Orozco revealed that former América sports director Ricardo Peláez asked to change the designation of a duel between the Eagles against León and he explained that it was due to two “brave matches” that previously involved the azulcrema club.
“Of something I am sure; I had two brave games with America, in the quarterfinals against Pachuca (Clausura 2015), which scored a penalty against Pablo Aguilar, and later on Samudio in Monterrey, in a semifinal (Clausura 2016) “.
“Time passed, I stopped arbiting America, normal, and they appoint me a Lion against America; Suddenly they speak to me and say ‘you are not going, we are seeing VAR situations and we are going to put another referee‘. Then I ask for an explanation and they tell me ‘is that they spoke on the phone’; It was (Ricardo) Peláez. They pick up the phone and you’re out “, he detailed in a relaxed interview for TV Azteca, in which the exsilbantes Paul Delgadillo and Francisco Chacón were also present.
In the series that awarded the ticket to the semifinals of the Clausura 2015, Pachuca won 3 to 2 against América at the Hidalgo Stadium, while in the duel back the Tuzos beat 4 to 3, with the Eagles at a disadvantage from minute 33, thanks to the expulsion of Paolo Goltz, and with a penalty against him and a red card for Pablo Aguilar at 90 ‘+ 3, which preceded another goal from Germán Cano, four minutes later, which sealed your destiny..
On the other hand, in the lead up to the Clausura 2016 title, the Eagles took advantage of 1 to 0 against Rayados in Monterrey and on the return they stayed a few minutes from accessing the final, however, the referee decreed a penalty due to a Miguel Samudio’s hand inside the area at 84 ‘which ultimately tipped the balance for the’ Gang ‘, with an overall score of 4 to 3.
