“No es lo más justo”: el árbitro que amonestó a dos capitanes por los insultos de sus padres explicó por qué lo hizo

Referee Agustín Celiz issued yellow cards to the team captains of Defensores and La Amistad during an AFO youth football league match in the western region of Greater Buenos Aires. The unusual disciplinary action was taken to halt a barrage of shouts and insults directed at the match by parents positioned in the sidelines and stands.

Following the match, Celiz publicly addressed the incident, acknowledging that the sanction was unusual by stating, "It is not the fairest thing." The measure highlights ongoing issues with spectator behavior and verbal abuse in youth sports, prompting officials to implement unconventional methods to manage sideline conduct.
