A few hours before the match against Riestra this afternoon in Bajo Flores for the League Cup, the
AFA
Disciplinary
Court
announced its ruling following the report presented by referee
Pablo Dóvalo
after the 2-2 draw between
Barracas Central
and
Independent
.
And Carlos Tevez was sanctioned for his harsh comments against his refereeing
.
The judge, in addition to expelling Rojo's substitute goalkeeper, Diego Segovia (they gave him a suspension date, which he already completed last weekend), included Tevez and Iván Marcone in his report.
El Apache was punished for two dates or a financial fine of
455 thousand pesos
.
In turn, Marcone will have to present a brief within the next eight days.

The non-expulsion of the Barracas striker, Alexis Domínguez, for an attack against Marcone, made the entire Independiente explode.
Tevez called Dóvalo a thief in the subsequent press conference, something that did not go down well with the Argentine Referees Association and the AFA.
With this sanction, the coach will pay and will not miss any match.
It will be an unprecedented rival for Independiente.
He has never faced Riestra before, whose current experience in the top category is not good.
The team led by Cristian Fabbiani accumulates just 8 points, the product of two wins, two draws and six losses.
A fall today will leave him with no chance of entering the League Cup playoffs.
However, Tevez's Rojo is not confident.
He keeps his guard up due to the distrust in the refereeing of the last games in which he has been harmed and, beyond the fact that after the classic with River he sought to lower the foam from the statements, the attention will undoubtedly be focused on the performance of Leandro Rey Hilfer, the referee assigned for this duel.
Carlitos must put his hand no matter what in the starting lineup.
Marcone's absence forces him due to his expulsion before the Millionaire.
But, in addition, it is likely that he will abandon the five-deep scheme and return to a drawing with four defenders.
The big unknown is how he will replace the captain.
The kid David Martínez is the one who appears as the natural option in the central midfielder position.
In fact, with Tevez he has been adding minutes.
One possibility is that Gabriel Neves joins for greater containment in the middle zone.

.
There are 5 teams with 18 points, including Independiente.
The others are: River, Talleres, Argentinos and Vélez, who would not be qualifying due to goal difference.
The Devil wants to return to victory to continue at the top.
