Under step two of FIFA's anti-discriminatory measures, the players were called to the centre of the pitch before they were ordered to the locker rooms as the chanting did not stop. The match was then suspended for 10 minutes as both sets of players left the field. On 63 minutes, the match referee Cesar Ramos briefly stopped play after it was heard and then moments later the game was stopped again. The match had to be stopped twice in the second half, in line with FIFA protocol, as the slur could be heard. Monterrey beat Cruz Azul 5-1 on aggregate to reach the CONCACAF Champions League final in a match marred by anti-gay chants on Thursday.
