Hot night at the Ducó: all the controversies from Huracán v River 🔥 | OneFootball

The first controversy came near the end of the first half. After a throw-in into the area, Lucas Martínez Quarta grabbed Jordy Caicedo by the shirt. Ramírez awarded a penalty to the Globo despite River's protests, claiming the contact was insufficient and requesting a prior offside. The VAR reviewed the action and confirmed the decision. Caicedo took the penalty and scored the equalizer.

In the second half, Fabio Pereyra touched Ian Subiabre inside the area, and the referee again pointed to the penalty spot. The VAR confirmed the decision and did not call for a review of the play. Juan Fernando Quintero took the shot, but Hernán Galíndez saved it from the Colombian.

Minutes later came the hottest play of the match. After a free kick by Quintero, the ball hit Emmanuel Ojeda's hand inside the area. Ramírez didn't see it initially, but was called by the VAR to review the action. While observing the play, a clash occurred between Lucas Carrizo and Facundo Colidio, who both ended up seeing the red card.

Finally, the referee awarded the penalty to River, and Gonzalo Montiel converted it for the final 2-1.

Towards the end, Huracán requested another penalty for an alleged push by Paulo Díaz on Juan Bisanz inside the area. But neither the referee nor the VAR considered the action worthy of a penalty.
