Reactions in America
The two actions generated anger in the American team. The one who did not take long to speak out was the main owner, Tulio Gómez, who published on his social networks:
“What happened today in Envigado is incredible, first they denied us a very clear penalty, and then in the last minutes of the game they invented a penalty to deny us the victory, central referee and the VAR guys guilty, these gentlemen can't whistle at us again, “They don't give us guarantees!!”
EL TIEMPO learned that Gómez sent the same message in the group chat of Colombian soccer presidents, to make his complaint more forceful.
