Controversy in Liga de Ascenso: Will the Apertura 2023 tournament be completed?

2023-12-14

The Liga de Ascenso has a tremendous blunderbuss, which is in danger of not completing the Apertura 2023 tournament, after the controversy of the first leg final between Juticalpa-Independiente at the Juan Ramón Brevé stadium.

In the last few hours, prior to the grand final back in Siguatepeque, resignations, statements and decisions have been confirmed that have maintained tense moments ahead of the battle on Saturday, December 16.

The Promotion League has not confirmed the referee for the match, as Independiente is crying out for this game to be refereed by a foreign quartet.

Days ago “Las Panteras” released a strong statement against the silver football board. In the mention, Independiente regretted the actions of referee Alex Morazán, who did not validate a clear score from the team led by Wilmer Cruz.

“We are experiencing a very unfortunate reality in Honduran soccer and in this case it affects our project and the enthusiasm of many Siguatepequenses, given the circumstances as a result of the actions of the central referee Mr. Alex Morazán during the grand final match, leaving in verifiable evidence the wrong decisions of the referee on repeated occasions, calling into question the human error, leaving in doubt the intentionality of the events, directly affecting the Club Atlético Independiente,” says part of the statement.

He adds: “Club Atlético Independiente notified the secretary of the Promotion League, Mr. Misael Cárdenas, since Tuesday, December 5, of the non-appointment of referee Alex Morazán, unfortunately our request was ignored.”

It should be noted that the CAI of Siguatepeque endorsed a goal that crossed the line, but the referee decreed that the ball did not cross the line of the Juticalpa goal.

At the end of the match, the Juticalpa players went all out against the referees, while Wilmer Cruz separated his players thinking about the return match.

Hours later, secretary Misael Cárdenas resigned from the Liga de Ascenso after the scandalous first leg of the grand final of the Apertura tournament in which Juticalpa won 2-0.

Cárdenas joined the board of directors in February 2020, but said goodbye to the position after the controversy of the first leg of the grand final and his participation will end on December 31
