By the date 26 of the professional league, Velez and Union they tied 0-0, but in addition to the result, the match left a very controversial play.
Four minutes into the second half, after an unsuccessful corner kick for the visit, Leonardo Burián took the ball and supported it against the grass to take out when Lautaro Giannetti warns him of something and asks him to pass it on. The archer performs the action on his foot and the defender takes the ball with his hand to accommodate and return the ball (already in his game) to Puppy to start the offensive sequence for the Fort.
Incredibly the Union players did not notice the breach of the ruleplay continued and the maximum penalty was not called or reviewed.
WAS IT PENAL FOR THE UNION? Burían and Giannetti made the same play as Goltz in Colón vs. Independent (that time the maximum penalty was charged).
