Involved in a great controversy and with very striking rulings by referee
Marcelo Sanz
,
Deportivo Camioneros
beat
Altos Hornos Zapla de Palpalá
on Sunday by 2 to 1 and was left with the fifth and last promotion to
Federal A
, in the final for the playoffs of the
Amateur
Football Regional.
The match was played at the Juan Pablo Francia stadium, owned by Sportivo Belgrano de San Francisco, in Córdoba, and the team founded by
Hugo Moyano
, which is based in the Buenos Aires town of
Esteban Echeverría
, made the difference thanks to two penalties - the first non-existent, since there was no foul by Agustín López, and the second much discussed - charged by the referee that translated into a goal Pablo Moyano, at 36 minutes of the first half, and Iván Pereyra, at 38 minutes of the final half.
The Jujeño team, despite finishing the match with nine players due to the expulsion of Maximiliano Vargas, at 23 minutes into the second period, and Joaquín Barro, at 42 minutes into the second period - coach Martín Martos also saw the red -, was able to score by Pedro Santillán's intermediate, 45 minutes into the final half, but it was not enough for him to reach the equality that would have allowed him to define the promotion with shots from the penalty spot.
Today in the FINAL of the Regional Amateur, they charged this PENALTY to Truckers.
Enough of these treacherous robberies, today the protagonist was Marcelo Sanz, referee in charge of the match.
This doesn't reach everywhere, that's why I upload it and thank you for the RT and the Fav.
ENOUGH OF CORRUPTION.

Everything would have been different if referee Sanz did not annul a goal by Jesús Guaymás at the request of one of his assistants when 11 minutes into the initial half after one of his assistants marked an offside that was not.

The helplessness of the Jujuy team was such that goalkeeper Nicolás Tonini broke down and burst into tears as a result of the indignation caused by Sanz's refereeing.
There was also anger from the Zapla fans, who tried to invade the playing field and delayed the execution of the second maximum penalty.

ANGER, IMPOTENCE AND CRYING
When referee Marcelo Sanz took the second penalty for Camioneros, Altos Hornos Zapla's goalkeeper, Nicolás Tonini, exploded in tears of helplessness and anger at what was happening.

In this way, Deportivo Camioneros will return to Federal A after a year in the Regional Amateur, because it had been relegated from Federal A in the previous season.
The team from the South of Greater Buenos Aires will disembark in the category - from where it will seek to jump to the First National - along with Deportivo Rincón from Rincón de los Sauces (Neuquén), Kimberley from Mar del Plata, Gutiérrez Sport Club from Mendoza and Sarmiento from La Banda (Santiago del Estero), who had been left with the four direct promotions.
At the same time, Camioneros is competing in the new Promotional tournament, which started this weekend and delivers two promotions to the First C. It will debut this Wednesday against Estrella de Berisso and the club president, Pablo Moyano, did not mince words.
"It is an immense joy. We should never have left. Now we have the other objective: to win the Promotional to reach the First C. No one stops us," said Hugo's eldest son and also a strong man of the CGT.
Yes, curiously, his team has two ways to rise in Argentine football.
