Universidad de Concepción has been called before the ANFP’s Autonomous Disciplinary Tribunal after a match that ended with forward Cecilio Waterman acting as goalkeeper in the final minutes.
The summons follows the referee’s report from the club’s 2-1 victory over Universidad de Chile at Ester Roa Stadium. The disciplinary resolution scheduled three appearances for the Concepción-based institution: entering the exclusion zone, failing to have a third jersey, and incidents.
The hearing will take place remotely on Tuesday, Sept. 8, beginning at 7 p.m.
The most striking episode came during stoppage time. Universidad de Concepción goalkeeper Jorge Broun received two practically consecutive yellow cards and was sent off in the 90+3rd minute. Referee Diego Flores recorded that one of the bookings followed Broun’s dissent over an officiating decision, when he threw “de mane” at the referee. After Broun’s dismissal, Waterman took over in goal, prompting the complaint that led to the club’s tribunal appearance.
