Argentine football referee Dalma Cortadi appealed Monday for justice to be done after she was punched from behind by a male player who disagreed with her on-field ruling during a regional league match.

Cortadi, 30, laid criminal charges against her attacker, 34-year-old Cristian Tirone, who was arrested on the pitch after knocking down the referee after she yellow-carded him for a foul.

The referee was taken to hospital and spent several hours under observation after the attack, which was caught on video.

"I fell and I don't remember anything else. When I got up I was dizzy and nauseous. Nothing like this has ever happened to me," Tirone told the Ole sports daily.

Cortadi was refereeing a third-tier match of the Tres Arroyos regional league between Independencia and Garmense, which was suspended after the attack.

She told Ole her gender was irrelevant to the matter.

"We want justice to be done and that this man pay for what he did. That is what is important," she stressed.

The league denounced the attack and Garmense suspended Tirone for life.
