Cruz Azul lost to Atlas in a match corresponding to Day 2 of the Apertura 2022. The final score was 3-2 for the Jalisco team; however, the match was affected by the referee's performance, which, for some, considerably affected the outcome of the game in favor of the home team.
VAR helps Atlas again, what FIFA says about Rotondi's sending off at Cruz Azul
In the first half stoppage time, the Argentine player Rotondi was sent off for a tackle with excessive force against Atlas' Anderson Santamaría. The situation was reviewed by the VAR, which considered the Argentine to have been sent off. From then on, things went uphill for "La Maquina" and Diego Aguirre.
The coach left with considerable dissatisfaction after the decisions of the central judge Óscar Macías, who had to be guided by the VAR to determine the expulsion of the Cementero player in the match. Evidently, Cruz Azul had to modify its system by playing with a man less and complicating the local team in other ways.
The Uruguayan coach of Cruz Azul considers that the sending-off was absolutely unfair and qualifies it as a very serious mistake that should not be taken lightly. All of this, taking into account the recent controversy about the alleged help given by the Refereeing Commission to the Academy's players.
