Brazil Vs Argentina Suspended As Police Storm Pitch To Arrest 4 EPL Players by brainiacliff: 9:14am On Sep 06, 2021 |
The World Cup qualifier between Brazil and Argentina was suspended on Sunday due to four English Premier League players who allegedly ‘lied’ on documents they filled out on entry to the country. The players were Tottenham pair of Giovani Lo Celso and Cristian Romero and Aston Villa duo Emi Buendia and Emi Martinez. The players are said to have reported for international duty with Argentina but things were stopped due to a row over falsified COVID documents. ESPN Brasil, per the Daily Mirror, reported that that the Brazil government, FIFA and Conmebol had struck an agreement that the mentioned players would be allowed onto the field to take part in the match. But just minutes into the match, officials from Brazilian health authority Anvisa stormed the pitch with police officers, demanded that the match be stopped to until the four players were off the field and detained.

These procedures strictly adhere to current regulations. “The World Cup Qualifiers is a FIFA competition. All decisions concerning its organisation and development are the exclusive power of that institution.” |
