Concacaf condemns threats made against referee Katia Itzel García

CONCACAF - Confederation in North and Central America and the Caribbean

Concacaf stands firmly with referee Katia Itzel García and fully condemns the disgraceful and unacceptable threats made against her.

There is absolutely no place in football, or in society, for abuse, intimidation, or violence of any kind, particularly against match officials who uphold the integrity of our game.

We are committed to supporting Katia, promoting respect across all levels of the sport, and working with regional stakeholders and partners, including the FMF and Leagues Cup, to seek ways to investigate the accounts that posted the threats.
