One of Argentina's top referees is under investigation and faces a possible ban after overturning a red card and penalty decision based on a television replay. Referee German Delfino awarded a penalty to Velez Sarsfield after  Daniel Valencia was adjudged to have handled the ball in the area and showed the Arsenal man his second booking of the game. However, the decision was overturned after linesman Ivan Nunez caught a replay of the incident on a nearby cameraman's monitor and informed Delfino via his earpiece.
