The case of Federico Viñas de América’s improper line-up in the match against Atlas has changed direction.
Now everything seems to indicate that if there was a sanction it would not be for the Eagles, but for the fourth referee, who is responsible for checking that the people who were on the card appear on the bench or in the stands , and this is Edgar Ulises Rangel.
Who is this referee?
Ulises Rangel is the son of the referee who bore his name, Édgar Ulises Rangel, who was killed in a car accident in 2002 while on his way to the referee convention in Acapulco, Guerrero.
He made his debut at the age of 27 in the Clausura 2019, on matchday 1, in a match between Puebla and Cruz Azul, after playing for two years in the former Liga de Ascenso.
In this 2021 Guardians, he acted in the seven days, but only one as central referee, – Date 1, Puebla vs. Guadalajara – and the other six in fourth, so you could say he’s an expert in the protocols to follow before and during the match.
In himself, most of his career was like a whistling fourth.
