Jardine Demands Disciplinary Measures as Referees Ignore Pre-Match Standards in América Draw

América settled for a 1-1 draw with Necaxa in Jornada 3 on Saturday, leaving the club in sixth place with five points. Jardine pinpointed two key incidents—a stamp on Alan Cervantes that should have been a red card and a hold on Isaías Violante that warranted a penalty. He reminded officials of a more-than-one-hour meeting with the Referee Commission in which 60 plays were reviewed and new foul criteria were established. The coach has formally requested that Liga MX impose expulsions or other sanctions on referees who fail to apply the agreed standards. With the Leagues Cup break approaching, América is pursuing one final reinforcement to strengthen the roster.
