World Cup qualifier saw police and local health officials storm the pitch and detain players. It was alleged before the game that four Argentina players – believed to be Tottenham 's Giovani Lo Celso and Cristian Romero as well as Aston Villa 's Emiliano Buendia and Emiliano Martinez – were in breach of Covid rules.
That's because they are based in England and non-Brazilians have to isolate for 14 days when arriving from the UK.This saw chaotic scenes, coming after less than 10 minutes when there was an attempt to detain the players.The Argentina team would then retreat to the dressing room with superstars such as Neymar and Dani Alves left on the pitch wondering if the clash would resume.
