translated from Spanish: Serious incidents after boca’s elimination against Atlético Mineiro

The finish in Belo Horizonte was hotter than expected after Boca’s elimination from the Copa Libertadores. Atletico Mineiro stayed with the pass to the quarter-finals on penalties and again the VAR controversially annulled a new goal of the “xeneize” that aroused anger towards the referees. To that situation, was added a spicy development of the match where several players came face to face, crossed in the preview of ostojich’s review on the screen and everything spread to the changing rooms at the end of the duel where serious incidents occurred.

Far from the television cameras that could not follow the events, clashes were seen between the Argentine delegation and the police where fences and even a water dispenser in the hands of Sebastian Villa were blown, while on the other side the troops threw pepper spray into the locker room. Another of the videos also shows Jorge Bermudez, a member of the Football Council, insulting and showing anger over the events, while near the changing rooms new images were released where the players enter coughing and taking their faces after the police attack.

At the moment, no one expressed themselves officially for what happened but the facts show the discontent of Boca, while there is a new case where the referees were decisive in a series that led to an unexpected and sad end for South American football.
