An assistant from Santiago Solari hands it over to the technical secretary and he in turn hands it over to the meeting commissioner
Federico Viñas’ possible misalignment has cast doubt on who is responsible for this shameful event. America assures that it delivered the Uruguayan’s name in a timely manner, while the referees claim they never got the Uruguayan’s name.
According to various sources consulted by ESPN, the process to follow to present an alignment in Liga MX is the following, at least in America:
After the coach has defined the players he will use for the game, he hands the names to one of the members of his coaching staff to prepare the list of starters and substitutes. For example, it is known that in Miguel Herrera’s stage, the list was delivered from the night before the game, as the coach defined his starters and substitutes well in advance, if he even made it known. Without any problems in their press conferences before their match in turn.
It was then that the ‘Piojo’ assistant drew up the list and that same evening passed the names on to technical secretary Mario Peniche so that he could send them to the MX League and there would be no last minute doubts or confusion. In the Santiago Solari stage, however, this situation has changed as the Argentine quarterback announces his line-up two or three hours before the game, reducing the time to prepare the map and increasing the margin of error.
As with Herrera, a member of Solari’s coaching staff must deliver the list of called persons to the technical secretary of América and from there provide the names to the match commissioner so that the official line-up that appears on the card can be drawn. up.
The same sources consulted by ESPN they say yes Federico Viñas was sitting on the bench in the match uniform because the coaching staff had considered him participating and it must be shown whether Santiago Solari’s assistants forgot to register the player or whether it was the MX League authorities who forgot to put the Uruguayan’s name on the entry form.
Research on this topic is currently ongoing, América claims no improper alignment because Viñas did not participate in the game in any way and has not broken the ordinance. However, this situation must be determined by the disciplinary committee in the coming days.
