MEXICO – The pending match of Day 1 between Puebla and America had many controversial actions for the arbitration body.
The whistle Eduardo Galván did not succeed in his decisions and the VAR He had to intervene to determine a possible red for Emanuel Aguilera, who finally did not show, after an iron to Cristian Tabó.
Later, he rectified the goal decision for the Strip after a shot by Jesús Zavala in which the ball did not cross the line completely with a great save by Guillermo Ochoa.
Finally, in the last part of the first half he had indicated a penalty in favor of Puebla for a foul by Aguilera himself, however, the video arbitration helped him by clarifying that the infraction was outside the area.
The arbitral analyst of ESPN, Felipe Ramos Rizo, was against the VAR have so many interventions correcting the main whistle. “There are already three plays to the VAR, better than arbitrate from the truck. None of the arbitration corps.”
It is not criminal, the offense is outside the area. Many failures in the match
