Junior from Barranquilla defeated Coquimbo Unido 0-1 last Wednesday, December 16, but had to say goodbye to the South American Cup, after drawing 2-2 on aggregate and being hurt by the two away goals scored by the Chilean team in the Metropolitan.

When the board indicated 11 minutes of play, an alleged hand in the Coquimbo Unido area unleashed the fury of the shark team, which, with the score in its favor, claimed the infraction, after it was not indicated in the first instance.

Victor Carrillo, match referee, was warned by the VAR of a possible hand in the area by Paul Gatica, after a play in which the defender jumped with Miguel Ángel Borja to dispute the ball. The judge of the contest heeded the call, and after reviewing the action of the game, determined that it was not a clear hand, generating controversy among the Atletico players and fans, who continued to claim the hand, as a penalty.

As is usual in this type of play, Conmebol revealed this Thursday the audios of the VAR and the central referee, in which the reason why the foul was not awarded in favor of Junior is explained, arguing that the defender does not make a move additional or unnatural in the dispute for the ball with Borja. End of the controversy? You judge.

WHERE: “Victor, I recommend an OFR, for a potential penalty. The forward has an unnatural hand, open and the ball hits him in his hand”

Cheek: “The front?”

WHERE: “The defender … The defender in yellow is in an unnatural position, open hand and hits the ball in his hand. I’m going to give you the point of contact in a looping”.

Cheek:
“Come on, here I am… I see that he is pointing the ball and then, wanting to head, the ball falls on his arms. But he doesn’t make an additional movement, okay Carlos?”

WHERE: “OK”
