Filomena forces changes of referees in First and Second

The Arbitration Committee of the Professional Competition (CACP) has had to vary arbitration appointments on the eighteenth round of First Division (LaLiga Santander) and the twenty-first of Second (LaLiga SmartBank) due to weather incidents that affect a large part of the country.

So, the First Levante-Eibar match will be directed by the Catalan Xavier Estrada Fernández, who replaces the Aragonese Santiago Jaime Latre.

The fourth official at the Ciutat de Valencia will be Carlos Alberto Carbonell Hernández; the assistants, Jorge Bueno Mateo and Fernando Tresaco Escabosa; and the person in charge of the VAR will be the Castilian-Leonese José Luis González González.

In the Second Division, the Galician Alejandro Muñiz Ruiz will be the main referee of the Tenerife-Cartagena match and Álvaro Moreno Aragón from Madrid, the head of the VAR, exchanging their initially assigned functions.

On the other hand, Santiago Varón Aceitón replaces Eduardo Prieto Iglesias as VAR at Málaga-Oviedo; in Mallorca-Las Palmas, Miguel Ángel Ortiz Arias replaces Dámaso Arcediano Monescillo in the VAR; and at Espanyol-Castellón, Francisco José Hernández Maeso will replace Daniel Trujillo Suárez as VAR.
