Arturo Brizio, president of the Arbitration Commission, assured that they will not allow “blackmail” regarding the issue of the dismissal of Adalid Maganda, which was reported this week due to the level he maintained in the matches he had to command as central referee.
In an interview with ESPN, the boss of the whistlers in Mexico said that the Nazarene had a negative attitude and bad behavior upon learning of his dismissal.

“When they made him see his mistakes, he was very aggressive and with the news he was disrespectful to the federation people. He will have his ways. If he goes to FIFA we are calm and we will not allow any blackmail.”
Even Brizio, who was a professional referee, denied that Maganda’s departure as a professional is due to discrimination issues, a matter that the native of Guerrero accused and pointed to this portal in recent days.
“Of course not (he was discriminated against). He accepted his commitments and has repeatedly broken them. It failed the physical tests. He went to arbitrate in the middle of the pandemic without sanitary measures. He did not understand the mechanics of VAR and the match on matchday 1 was very bad in terms of refereeing, “he added.
On the other hand, it will be this Thursday when Maganda and his lawyers meet with the Mexican Soccer Federation to discuss the issue and to avoid that the action of his dismissal is consumed and he can stay in his position.
