The controversial Paraguayan referee, Eber Aquino, broke the silence and referred to the embarrassing performance he exhibited in the duel between Uruguay Y The Red by qualifiers.
Let us remember that the judge did not charge a clear penalty for the ‘team of all’, which caused the selection to end up falling 2-1 against the Charrúa.
Now, in conversation with the Futgol program of Radio Universo 970 AM in Asunción, Aquino declared that he was very satisfied with the performance of that match.
“Very satisfied with the work in that game (Uruguay vs Chile). Working with VAR is a double insurance ”, he said.
In addition, the referee defended himself from the criticism he has received after refereeing the match. “It really annoys when they issue criticism like that, it seems even malicious,” he launched.
Recall that after this controversy, the Paraguayan traveled to Saudi Arabia to direct a semifinal of the Copa del Rey, where he also received criticism.
“The referee hurt us. We had a penalty kick and a clear expulsion of one of the Al Hilal players. I wanted the referee to be Saudi and not foreign, ”said Abderrazek Chebbi, Abha’s coach.
