Why Was Manuel Ugarte Not Sent Off After Two Yellow Cards Vs. England?

Ugarte appeared to be booked twice against England, but officials effectively erased the second caution, meaning it never became a sending-off offense. After the match, it was also suggested his earlier yellow may actually have gone to Jose Maria Jimenez. Either way, the key ruling was that Ugarte did not officially carry two active bookings before Bielsa substituted him.
