The controversial exclusion of Yoshimar Yotún after a singles match where the referee Paul Lopez decided to remove it from the game caused a stir among football fans as it was not seen as an attack on the Unión Comercio player during the match at the Alberto Gallardo Stadium.
This leaves the Sporting Cristal team down to 10 players and will result in ‘Yoshi’ missing the heavenly club’s next game against Alianza Lima. In this sense, Joel Raffo, president of the Rimense club, explained to the media at the end of the game that this situation suggests that there is a certain “preference” of the referees who run the VAR, which is why Cristal is appealing this decision becomes the fact that “there is no option to change”.

“As much as you don’t want to, you think about the injustices and that there are certain ones favor. The last thing we want is to have such an excuse. “We will appeal, but we know there is no option to change,” he said.
