Beyond being a controversial referee—one Unión has suffered under—the numbers show that El Tate has won more than it has lost with Fernando Espinoza.
The name Fernando Espinoza always sparks controversy, because of the way he officiates and also how he carries himself on the field. And this Friday from 8:30 p.m., he will be in charge of officiating the match between Unión and Newell’s.
Even though Unión’s red-and-white supporters do not have a good opinion of Espinoza, the numbers show that with this referee, Unión has won more matches than it has lost.
The statistics show that Espinoza has officiated 30 Unión matches, of which El Tate won 12, lost 11, and drew the remaining seven.
The last time he officiated Unión was in Matchday 2 of the current Apertura Tournament, in the 2-1 away defeat to Lanús, when he sent off Valentín Fascendini for denying an obvious goal-scoring opportunity.
