Sources cited by ESPN Deportes say the Toluca manager will not be punished for criticising referee Katia Itzel García, and will instead receive nothing more than an apercibimiento.

The Toluca manager made critical comments about referee Katia Itzel García, and according to sources consulted by ESPN, he will not be sanctioned for them. What he will get is an apercibimiento: a warning, formally recorded, with no further consequence attached.
That is the whole of it, and the gaps around it are the interesting part. The specific comments Mohamed made have not been detailed. Neither has the date, nor the fixture at which any of this happened. There is no official statement from the federation confirming the outcome, and none from Mohamed either. The sanction that is not coming is better documented than the offence that prompted it.
A warning is the disciplinary equivalent of a nod. It appears on a file, it costs nobody a touchline ban, and it allows everyone involved to say the matter has been dealt with. Whether that reads as leniency or as proportion depends entirely on what was said, which is precisely the thing nobody has put on the record.
Until the federation says something in its own name, this remains a single report built on unnamed sources, and it should be read as one. The absence of an official line is not a detail here. It is the story.
