Scandal in Uruguay: they admit that money was spent to corrupt a referee

A major scandal broke out in football Uruguay after the triumph of National, 2-1, over Miramar Misionesmatch of the eighth date of the Apertura Tournament, as there was a very controversial play.

Referee Hernán Heras sanctioned a non-league decision at the request of the VAR, but there are doubts. “I knew they were going to annul it because the VAR was Christian Ferreyra; always favors Nacional,” he said. Edgardo Lasalvia, Miramar Misiones sports advisor.

Tremendous mess

And he added: “When drawing the lines I didn't know if Ferreyra was there or the son who made them by hand. By a shoulder or a millimeter the VAR ruins football; “Let them go shit.”

Lasalvia assured that there is corruption in football in that country and gave a clear example, when he himself took on the task of buying a judge.

“When I was in other parts of football I put money to corrupt a judge and I was able to go to jail; that was in a Peñarol and Nacional about ten years ago. I don't know if they took money from me, but it was at another time in my life,” she said.

Lasalvia congratulated the president of Nacional, Alejandro Balbi, of whom he said: “He has political power now.”

“Miramar, on the day of the match, went to train under water with a stopped ball and three hours before the match they notified us that it was suspended due to the same rain that fell yesterday (during the match that was played in the Luis Franzini)“, accurate.

“We gave Nacional a day of rest. They didn't consult us at all and it costs us a lot an extra day at the hotel. Therefore, whoever gave you the weather forecast must be 'Stevie wonder' (blind singer-songwriter),” Lasalvia noted.

Ricardo Caruso Lombardi made his debut at the helm of Miramar Misiones and Edgardo Lasalvia assured that in the loss of the match the “hand of the coach” was noticeable, who after losing said: “It is impossible for him to have taken an offside charge in our second goal. It seemed like he didn't want to collect it. It's not that there was a mistake; It is about 30 centimeters enabled, it is very clear. Unless they make the lines like in Argentina, where they make them curved…”
