Resounding message of the CTA president to the referees

Yesterday, Friday, the weekly seminar or meeting of the arbitration group took place where everything that happened on the last day was reviewed. It’s also the first after what happened this week, especially with the mistake from the room VOR in the equalizing purpose of Elche and where Ezekiel Ponce He was offside at the start of it. Something that is not the particular referee of VAR, Ignacio Iglesias Villanuevanor his AVAR appointed on that day, Isidro Diaz de Mera. An error which means that, for the moment, they are excluded from the appointments they have in the Copa del Rey round of 16 tie and outside the appointments for this league day,

It was a seminar that lasted about three hours and in which the president of the arbitration body, Luis Medina CantalejoIt is very hard and strong. He made it clear at the outset that this could not be repeated, that it was an unforgivable mistake. Something that was already expressed in the note released last Tuesday by the property itself, but yesterday was told to the entire professional football arbitration group.

But not only in the action last Monday, as well as what happened in Sporting de Gijón- Valencia last Wednesday when the international referee montero started the second part without realizing that there were three more players from sporting gijon to appear on the playing field. Although the referee stopped the game after a few seconds and apologized, it was a mistake that a professional football referee cannot make.

Loud, clear, direct, resounding is the first statement used by the head of the arbitration body in his message. Following this, and as usual, they analyze the various plays that took place in the matches on the last day of the league as well as in the round of 16 matches of Copa del Rey.
