From the National Stadium, Sporting Cristal vs Universitario faced each other on matchday 13 of the Clausura 2023 Tournament. This result played much more in favor of Alianza Lima, a rival who will have to face Unión Comercio at the Alejandro Villanueva Stadium in La Victoria.

An event that undoubtedly caught the attention of the spectators at the José Díaz colossus, as well as the viewers, was the discussion between the coaches Tiago Nunes and Jorge Fossati. This is why each one received a red card, a decision made by the referee, Kevin Ortega. Was it right?

Miguel Scime, former FIFA referee, spoke out after learning about the expulsion of both coaches through his social networks. He emphasized that it was correct.

"Universitario vs Sporting Cristal. The technical directors were correctly expelled. Coincidentally or causality, only 2 players who were not cautioned were chosen to participate in the general tumult", stated the former Conmebol referee on his Twitter account.
