Batres should also be assigned to the 2006 World Cup . He had to stop the fitness tests during the assistant referee course at the end of March, however, because a cruciate ligament tear he suffered in December 2005 had not yet completely healed. Two years later he attracted attention when he sent six players off the field in the course of " pack formation " from the 85th minute during the encounter between New England Revolution and CF Atlante (1-0) in the SuperLiga in 2008 .
