Hincapié falls: another sent off by the Prestianni law

Mexico has broken the curse. After 40 years, it has managed to win a knockout-stage match at a World Cup, but the controversy came in the final minutes.

After Miguel Almirón’s incident against Turkey, Hincapié learned nothing. In the final minutes, he crossed paths with Santi Giménez and covered his mouth to say something to him that, so far, has not been revealed.

Because of this, Vincic went to VAR and sent him off, as required by the Prestianni Law. Even though tempers can flare in a moment like that, it’s incredible that these kinds of dismissals are still happening.
