TUDN’s Andrés Vaca Says Referee Fernando ‘Curro’ Hernández Confronted Him at Monterrey Hotel

On Podcast Cuadro A, he linked the late‑2024 encounter to his on‑air criticism after a controversial match incident, saying fellow officials defused the moment.

Overview

  • Vaca says Hernández refused to shake his hand in a hotel lobby and referenced Vaca’s past call on air that he should not officiate again.
  • The broadcaster ties the tension to a prior game in which Hernández was involved in a widely criticized altercation with a León player.
  • According to Vaca, other referees stepped in to calm Hernández, the exchange ended there, and no blows were exchanged.
  • He places the episode at a Monterrey hotel in late 2024 and disclosed it this week on Podcast Cuadro A, with multiple outlets picking up the account.
  • There has been no published response from Hernández or Liga MX, and no formal complaint or disciplinary action has been reported regarding the hotel encounter.
