Referee in Mexico turns into prime Maldini, accidentally acts like a last defender and denies a 100% goal
  • Liga MX has just witnessed one of the most bizarre refereeing incidents in world football this season.
  • In a game between Cruz Azul and Toluca, two teams in the top-3 of the Mexican league, the home team had a brilliant chance to make it 3-0.
  • And they would've undoubtedly scored if the referee had not decided to stand in the way:
  • As fate would have it, Toluca made it 2-2 just before halftime having escaped going three goals behind.
  • Perhaps, the referee is lucky that Cruz Azul managed to win it in the end and that his save will have no real impact on the table.
