Gato Ortiz calls a penalty for América because Atlas was breathing too hard in the box.

Flying Cat's Nest - Gato Ortiz has already clarified that the penalty he awarded against América was because an Atlas player breathed too close to Henry Martín.

What initially seemed like a controversial decision, clearly biased in favor of the Eagles, has now been clarified by the referee, who explained the reason for awarding the penalty.

The incident occurred in the 23rd minute, when a Red and Black defender inhaled forcefully near the Blue and Cream forward, which the referee interpreted as "unsportsmanlike contact with the invisible ball." Without hesitation, he awarded the penalty while the América players celebrated as if the goal was already a foregone conclusion.

El Gato explained that the Atlas defender had been blinking for some time near the Americanistas.

" The rules are clear: any sudden movement of air that affects the atmosphere of a large area is punishable," Ortiz explained from a car dealership, where he was spotted this morning.

The decision sparked outrage among Atlas players, who complained to the referee that "they didn't breathe near the América player," a remark that went unheard by the reliable referee.

For his part, the Rojinegro coach has already asked FIFA to clarify when breathing is allowed near the forwards and when it isn't, because it seems that such plays are only called in favor of Coapa and always in the first minutes of the match.

América's robbery of Atlas is scandalous, Djuka was authorized.

VAR gave Ramón Juárez the line when Israel Reyes was the one who had enabled the Serbian.

“ Tell me not to give me another penalty when the Atlas full-back blinked many times near Maximin ,” added Gato, trying to hide the mustard-colored shirt he was wearing under his jacket.
