Alianza Lima couldn't beat Sport Boys at the Estadio Nacional in Lima and was defeated by the minimum margin in the 90 minutes. The blanquiazul team almost ended up with 10 men after the unprecedented expulsion of Ricardo Lagos, a fact that VAR had to intervene to correct Diego Haro's initial decision.

This action caught the attention of Óscar del Portal, who did not remain silent in front of the viewers for seeing that there are decisions that could harm clubs in upcoming matches and/or international tournaments.

According to "Fútbol en América" sports commentator, the VAR acted correctly by telling Diego Haro that he was about to make a blatant mistake against Ricardo Lagos. He also emphasized that technology will allow us to know which referees "commit an incapacity" for a future evaluation.

"He invented something. It's serious. A referee is making things up. What happens if he harms a team and they lose? VAR is important even for blatant mistakes because in the end it will show us who can make an incapacity and who can go beyond. And that is dangerous, because CONAR has been poorly managed for a long time," Óscar del Portal said with great annoyance.

The truth is that Ricardo Lagos did not receive a warning when he saw that there was absolutely nothing in the scuffle between the players of Alianza Lima and Sport Boys. Now, Chicho Salas' team is focused on their match against Universitario in search of the 3 points in front of their fans.
