Jorge Célico criticized the refereeing and regretted his team’s lack of a goal
Jorge Célico spoke at the conference after Universidad Católica’s 2-1 defeat against Emelec and assured that his team was superior, but that it failed to carry out the actions it created. In addition, he took time to criticize the refereeing.
“It seems to me that, without going into whining, the referees are not playing us well. I don’t think there is anything intentional, but there are realities that I want to highlight, such as the previous game (against Barcelona), the expulsion of (Gustavo) Vallecilla for example Our president is going to demand all this in the FEF and today I don’t see them reviewing plays in our favor, today they kick (Fausto) Grillo in the face and they won’t see it. Maybe it’s my lack of knowledge or it’s the ease of charging teams bigger than us.“, he claimed.
“My congratulations to Emelec for having won, it is very difficult to explain the inexplicable, the team has played much better in the two games it has lost, it has played better than the rival. Football has these things that the prize goes to the one who has been inferior, but that’s how it is. It has happened in my favor too,” he added.
