What were the controversies in the tie between Argentinos and Vélez in La Paternal

The first play that El Bicho requested was a penalty from Valentín Gómez against Francis MacAllister when the game was still tied 0-0.

The defender of Vélez seemed to step to the Argentinos player in the area, referee Zunino did not see a foul and the VAR did not consider calling him to review the play.

Meanwhile, the second situation that generated Vega’s anger occurred before Vélez’s goal: José Herrera was taken away in the cart, Zunino did not let him enter and in the middle of that situation Agustín Lagos scored.

Then, El Bicho had nine players on the field because at the end of the first half Kevin Coronel had already been sent off for a violent infraction against Agustín Bouzat.
