Liga Profesional confirmed the officiating appointments for matchday 11 of the Torneo Clausura. Facundo Tello will take charge of the clásico between Talleres and Belgrano, Sebastián Martínez will referee Boca-Unión, and River still does not have a confirmed referee for the match against Sarmiento.
The Liga Profesional has now announced the officiating appointments for matchday 11 of the Torneo Clausura, in a round that comes with several big names and special attention on Córdoba. The main focus is on the clásico between Talleres and Belgrano, which will have Facundo Tello as the main referee.
The schedule also confirmed Sebastián Martínez for Boca-Unión, another of the standout matches of the round. Meanwhile, River still does not have a confirmed referee for its clash with Sarmiento, so that appointment remains pending within the schedule released by the organization.
The referees who stand out in matchday 11
Beyond the individual matchups, Tello's appointment for the Córdoba clásico once again puts the spotlight on a game that usually carries tension, history and plenty of attention. In this case, the choice does not go unnoticed because it comes in a round in which there were also other important decisions within the officiating schedule.
Among the names announced by Liga Profesional are:
- Facundo Tello, for Talleres-Belgrano
- Sebastián Martínez, for Boca-Unión
- River, still without a confirmed referee to play Sarmiento
The round was also marked by the continuity of some referees in high-voltage matches. According to the information released, Herrera will remain on the field and Baliño will be in the VAR.
Continuity for referees with recent precedents
That detail is no small one: Herrera was kept on the appointment for Newell's-Lanús, while Baliño was assigned to the VAR for Vélez-Platense. These are two names that reappear on the agenda after having been involved in the controversial final between Rosario Central and Estudiantes.
In that context, matchday 11 of the Clausura presents an officiating map that combines high-profile matches, familiar names and one appointment still pending for River's fixture. As is often the case in Argentine football, the debate around the referees once again becomes a central part of the buildup.
