Antonio Mohamed blasts: You can't hug a player like that

Antonio Mohamed spoke to the press after América vs. Toluca, which ended on a heated note because of Helinho’s red card and the incidents involving Alejandro Zendejas.



"El Turco" referred to the intervention of assistant referee Karen Díaz, who hugged the América player to pull him away from the fight.

"It makes us angry that the lineswoman can’t be hugging Zendejas the way she hugged him. Why didn’t she hug Helinho? She ran all over the field while hugging him. I haven’t even hugged my daughter like that."

"I went over to tell her: ‘You can’t be hugging Zendejas. If he wants to throw a punch, let him throw it. Why didn’t you hug Helinho?’ That was the question I asked her. Not because she’s a man or a woman," he said. +


Karen Díaz’s actions divided opinion: while some praised her composure, others pointed out that as an official, she cannot intervene that way during a fight on the field.
