Argentina National Selector Suspended

Argentina National Selector Suspended

The Argentina national selector, Gerardo Martino, has been suspended for one match following his expulsion in the match against Uruguay, meaning he will not be able to be on the bench in the match against Jamaica in Viña del Mar on Saturday.

The Copa America organization announced this after the Argentine coach was expelled in the 32nd minute of the match played yesterday in La Serena.

Martino is the first coach to be expelled in this edition of the Copa America, after entering the field of play after half an hour of play to protest a advantage decision that the Brazilian referee Sandro Ricci did not concede.

The referee had decided to call a foul by Nicolás Lodeiro on the Argentine Javier Mascherano, instead of allowing play to continue.

"I took two or three steps onto the field," said Martino after last night's match, who did not criticize the decision.
