By date 6 of the Professional Soccer League tournament, River and Vélez star in one of the weekend's matches.
In the first even time, the Millo started better than the Fort, and then it was those of Liniers who came to dominate the actions in the Monumental.
With few arrivals, they finished those first 45 minutes at 0-0.
But everything could have changed in the 31st minute. Lucero reached Armani's area from the left side and when he shot his cross the ball seemed to hit Paulo Díaz's arm.
After the rebound, River's 1 threw himself on the near post and saved without problems.
A penalty was requested in the substitute bench of the visit, with Mauricio Pellegrino at the head, but the gesture of the referee Pablo Echavarría did not give rise to any claim:
"it was nothing", he sentenced with his arms, in a bombastic way
.
Television agreed that Paulo Díaz's arm recklessly touched the ball.
The repetition of the TV seemed to give a different look than the one the referee had.
It is that despite a loose location of the cameras, the action shows that the Chilean defender tilts his body sharply towards the ball to hit it with his arm.
It is true that his arm is close to the body but it is very strange the way he turned towards the ball, completely changing his trajectory.
Vélez, who did not score goals in the first 5 dates of the tournament and is going through a series of football crisis after his elimination from the Copa Libertadores, could have had the 0-1 in that play.
Thiago Almada
, head of the Liniers team, is in charge of taking the ball when you have to kick from 12 steps and it is known that the youth has great effectiveness in that matter.
Controversy in Núñez.
It was a penalty for Vélez against River.
