VAR Decisions Shape Barracas CentralBelgrano 1–1 Draw

Referee Andrés Gariano used video review, with Adrián Franklin in VAR, on both decisive scoring decisions.

Overview

  • Late in the first half, a Belgrano move finished by Nicolás Fernández was annulled after Gariano, on VAR advice, judged a foul by Franco Jara in the buildup.
  • Belgrano leveled about three minutes into the second half when Jara scored, initially flagged offside by assistant Sebastián Ranieri.
  • After roughly two minutes of checks, the video review confirmed Jara’s goal and the match stood 1-1.
  • The disallowed first‑half play involved Francisco González Metilli losing control, Jara contesting the ball, and Fernández finding the net.
  • LA NACION reported that Belgrano coach Ricardo Zielinski responded to the first‑half annulment with ironic gestures.
