The result goes to the second term, we are more concerned about the physical integrity of the players“he stated in consultation with TUDN.

Relative to statement issued by Olimpia last Thursday in his social networks he said: “I do not know whether the Olympia statement will pass avoid your responsibilityThey are right when they mention the kick that Naveda throws, but it comes as a result of the aggressions we have experienced before

It all comes down to arbitration, which could have been decisive from the first minute Viñas was thrown in front of him, then the punch on the back (Cordova). A skilled referee controls the game with cards so it doesn’t get out of hand. Yesterday it clearly did not happenhe added.

Finally, as for the measures to be implemented in case something similar happens again, he waves: “You wouldn’t participate, but we don’t want to go to that extreme either.The easiest thing would be to improve the quality of the referees. What happened yesterday was horrible, a total irresponsibility on the part of the referee. It’s unbelievable that at this point in a tournament that takes you to the Club World Cup, we don’t have VAR
