Valley Independent and Emelec They played one of the most anticipated matches of the beginning of the season, at the Banco Guayaquil stadium. It was the only match of the second day that had Video Assistance to the Referee (WHERE for its acronym in English) at the request of the striped.
The game was resolved in favor of the blues precisely because of the intervention of the WHERE.
at 54 minutes Sebastian Rodriguez took a free throw that deflected in Lorenzo Faravelli.
After reviewing the play, Carlos Orbe, in charge of the monitors, called the central judge Luis Quiroz, who finally ruled in a penalty kick for a handball by the Argentine. Rodríguez changed it for a goal in the 61st minute and with it the three points and the lead went to Guayaquil.
Renato Paiva, Independiente’s coach, in the press conference after the game, mentioned that he trusts “in the work of the referee chen I win, lose or draw, I am consistent”, he said.
“Look at how life is so ironic, the WHERE of a thief and today he decides the match in favor of Emelec”, he commented after analyzing the work of the VAR that was installed in this match at the request of his club.
He was self-critical with his players who lacked quality when defining in front of the goal Peter Ortiz.
“We can’t do 29 crosses without at least finishing well. Either they were very long or the merit of Emelec’s goalkeeper and defense. We have to work on definition, we can’t kick 15 times and only finish four well”, he maintained.
