After the attack on goalkeeper Facundo Masuero, referee Federico Benítez decided to suspend the match between San Martín de San Juan and Nueva Chicago after finding there were no guarantees following the keeper’s departure by ambulance.
The first half was coming to an end after referee Federico Benítez blew the whistle when a firecracker struck goalkeeper Facundo Masuero, knocking him to the ground and leaving him injured and dazed. The doctors and the ambulance had to come onto the field to treat him. The final decision was to remove him from the Hilario Sánchez stadium and transfer him to Rawson Hospital.
The head referee ultimately decided to suspend the match. It all happened because of a cowardly attack from one of the stands at the Verdinegro stadium in San Juan.
Most likely, San Martín will lose the points despite leading the match thanks to a goal by Sebastián Jaurena. Nueva Chicago will be awarded the win by default because of the unnecessary attack on Facundo Masuero. Right now, the important thing is to know the goalkeeper’s condition.
