The referee who stopped a match at halftime, in which Gimnasia led Boca Juniors 1 – 0, has finally broken his silence.
Referee Daniel Gimenez reported that Gimnasia La Plata Club president Juan Jose Munoz threatened him with physical violence. Gimenez stated “…if the match had continued and I had expelled a Gimnasia player, I don’t know if I would have gotten out of there alive.”
