The confrontation between Bolivar and Flamengo, valid for the group stage of the Copa Libertadores de América, will have an international touch in its refereeing. Venezuelan Alexis Herrera was appointed to lead the action on the field, accompanied by his compatriots Tulio Moreno and Lubin Torrealba as assistants. VAR technology will be under the responsibility of Silvio Trucco.
With extensive experience in high-level games, Herrera brings with him a history of impartiality and technical rigor in his decisions. His actions aim to ensure fairness and sporting justice during the 90 minutes of the match. Upon assuming the main whistle, Herrera faces the challenge of ensuring compliance with the rules of the game and the safety of the players in a highly competitive environment. Its presence in La Paz, more than 3,600 meters above sea level, adds an extra layer of complexity due to the challenging physical conditions the athletes will face.
Tulio Moreno and Lubin Torrealba, as assistants, play a crucial role in observing moves that are difficult for the main referee to perceive. His constant communication with Herrera aims to minimize errors and ensure accurate decision-making at crucial moments in the game.
Meanwhile, the presence of video referee, Silvio Trucco, adds an additional layer of review and analysis to the decisions on the field. VAR has been an important tool for ensuring fairness and accuracy in refereeing decisions, especially in high-level competitions such as the Copa Libertadores.
For Bolivar and Flamengo, the presence of a international arbitration team brings a mix of expectation and uncertainty. The impartiality and competence of the referees will be crucial to ensure that the final result of the game is determined solely by the performance of the teams on the field.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.

“For me, it was a foul. at Léo Pereira, and it's outside the area, but there's an imbalance behind. We and Bahia whistled there. He gave it to Michael. The criteria confuse me. Claus confuses me. He gets in the way of my ideas. Having made this observation, there is a context, there is a possibility of a shot going towards the goal, there is a surplus with Léo to define. Afterwards, he is able to finish the play or interrupt to recover”, said the coach.
Gerson also criticizes the refereeingAfter the match, Gerson also complained about a foul not marked in the play that led to Vasco's goal. “An excellent match. We dominated practically the entire game. Unfortunately, in the end, on a ball that in my opinion was a foul, the referee didn't give it and we conceded the goal. Vasco only had this chance. We are sad to have played an excellent match and conceded a goal at the end”, said the Flamengo captain. p>The play
