Gross mistake by the referees in the match between River and Instituto. Santiago Rodríguez scored the 1-0 with his hand and they validated it.

Horror of the VAR: the goal with the hand that validated the Institute

The night at the Monumental Stadium started with controversy. Some plateitas had not even finished accommodating themselves in their seats and Instituto was already winning 1-0 thanks to Santiago Rodríguez’s goal. Loss of De la Cruz in the middle of the field, counterattack and left-footed shot to the low left corner of the rival striker. Madness broke out at the Institute but the referee Hernán Mastrángelo did not validate the quick goal.

With the players willing to get out of the way, the judge stopped the match because they called him from the VAR. Rodríguez lowered the goal ball with his right biceps, a clear hand that should have invalidated the play. Four minutes took the VAR, commanded by Héctor Paletta, to make a decision. They exploded on the River bank and the game got hot fast.

The most striking thing was that as it was an interpretive play and not factual, Mastrángelo should have approached the monitor to see it. But no, they didn’t call him. And the worst thing was that they scored the goal when the ball clearly hit him in the biceps and no goal can come from a touch in an improper area (except for the head of the shoulder, any other touch on the rest of the arm is illegal).
