Former Argentine referee Javier Castrilli will leave his position as chairman of the arbitration commission of the Chilean football federation (ANFP), after some audios were leaked in which the Argentine would have exerted extra football pressure for the match corresponding to the Promotion between Huachipato and Copiapó .
According to the local newspaper La Tercera, the authorities of the Andean entity met with the former arbitrator to inform him that “he would be removed from his duties while the investigation was being carried out.” However, “both Castrilli, Osvaldo Talamilla and Braulio Arenas, the other members of the commission, did not accept, so they were dismissed.”
“We cannot allow football to continue to transmit impunity. We want football to have transparency. It's a great sport, it's the best discipline. We must reduce the possibility of any mistake”, had been the words of the Argentine when he took up his new role in which he did not reach 7 months.
During the last few hours, the Chilean press presented the conversation held by the local referee who was in charge of the Promotion meeting, Francisco Gilabert, which led to the dismissal of the Sheriff. “I take the penalty, understanding that it might not be a criminal, because I gambled it. I saw from behind that I played her on the ankle and that I was going to call myself the VAR. When the VAR calls me, I see that it is not criminal. I was going to go out with a corner kick and they tell me Francisco, please, moment; analyze the shirt. And I see a jersey”, were the arguments about the controversial action of the collegiate.
The audio that Radio ADN revealed left no room for doubt: “I say that it seems to me that it is a game action, I'm going to go with a corner kick. Francisco, please analyze the shirt, they tell me. And me, what? Chucha, that's when I understood something had happened. I don't know what the hell, but something weird. And I left with that feeling of getting a piece of crap that wasn't. When the match ends, the members of the VAR tell me Huevón luckily you got the penalty, luckily you understood us. They called me from Santiago who had to collect penalties.”
The conversation that the judge of the controversy had acknowledged that Castrilli's order was to favor a team: “He called me and told me that he was a brave, courageous guy, who felt represented by me on the court. We are going to bank you to death, you are the people we need, people committed to the project, he told me”...
It should be noted that the Chilean union of referees began a strike in protest against the dismissal of 11 colleagues following the decision of Javier Castrilli, before he left office. The president of the federation, Pablo Milad, supported the dismissals and did not rule out hiring foreign judges.
The referees decided to take a measure of strength and for the time being it is unknown what will happen with the ninth date of the local championship scheduled for the weekend.
