The Mexican arbitration again gives what to talk about and this time the guillotine fell on one of its strong cards. After the official announcement of the arbitration committee’s appointments for the nine fronts of the 6th Day of the Opening 2026 tournament, a silent but fierce punishment comes to light.
The body decided to send directly to the freezer Katia Itzel García, the world champion who, despite starting the competition with a perfect step, ended up paying very expensive their recent sins on the MX League fields.

The defeat of the National Autonomous University of Mexico had begun the campaign with the right foot, adding two consecutive appearances as a central judge. However, the honeymoon abruptly ended during the actions of Day 3 in the match between Querétaro and Tigres.
That night at the Corregidora Stadium, the performance of the university slander unleashed a storm of controversies and a myriad of tough criticisms by analysts, a performance batch that lighted the alarms in the arbitral seat and cost her to be erased from the next date.

Looking for a gradual redemption, Katia Itzel’s name reappeared last weekend for the Blue Cross and Atlas engagement for Day 5. However, her participation was far from absolute protagonism, having to conform to fulfilling low-profile functions as the fourth referee on the cal line.
When everything pointed out that this sixth date would mark her definitive return to stellar functions, the Arbitration Commission opted to follow her “guarding” on the desks. In the absence of an official statement by the body of the Mexican Football Federation or statements of the affected person, the administrative silence confirms the suspicions of the sports environment.
The mathematical reality is that for this weekend the swallowing puma will have no participation of any species. Katia Itzel García was completely deleted from the official lists, without a single place assigned within the arbitral quarters on the field and completely excluded from the VAR cabins.
Judge by you. If the arbitration committee considers an aggression to Katia Itzel can request investigation in the fmf disciplinary committee. In my opinion no, will it be easier for @Arbitraje_MX to tell Katia that it was accidental and that it was misplaced in that? https://t.co/f0QgZljj99
The silent will have to see the actions from the tribune waiting to receive the definitive forgiveness to go back to pit. This shows that in the MX League there are different categories to sanction the Nazarene; while the consented are always forgiven, the rest are simply passed on.
