VAR decides on equality between Peru and Venezuela

The VAR was the big protagonist of the match who matched without selections the selections of Peru and Venezuela in the arena do Grêmio of Porto Alegre.

The Colombian referee Wilmar Roldán and the VAR have acquired a special role today while the examination of two plays, one at 6 minutes and one at 63 minutes, prevented Peru to concede two goals for the advanced position of its players .

Venezuelan winger Luis Mago became the first player to be expelled from Copa America after receiving the second yellow card in the 73rd minute of the match played at Arena do Gremio.

The 24-year-old playing in the Chilean Palestino hit the ball without the Peruvian Andy Polo, and then referee Roldan pointed him out of the locker room.

The second day of group A will take place on June 18th.

Teams from Bolivia and Peru will play at 5:30 pm at Maracanã stadium in Rio de Janeiro and three hours later Brazilian and Brazilian hosts will compete at the Fonte Nova Arena in Salvador.
