DARÍO HERRERA sparked controversy with a contentious decision in the Libertadores final between Palmeiras and Flamengo.
With the ball out of play, Erick Pulgar from Mengao delivered a studs-up challenge to Bruno Fuchs of Verdao. The Argentine referee decided to only give him a yellow card.
The entire Paulista team, including coach Abel Ferreira, demanded a red card for the aggression with the game stopped. The defender was visibly in pain and injured around the shin area. However, Héctor Paletta, the VAR referee, chose not to intervene to review the decision.
