Former Man Utd player involved in fight as Boca Juniors end up at police station

Atletico Mineiro versus Boca Juniors left us some embarrassing scenes. Boca were knocked out after losing on penalties. 

The Argentinian side were very upset with the refereeing in both games and after losing on penalties, the players tried to enter the opposition dressing room.

The Brazilian police decided to spray tear gas at the visitors and Villa and Zambrano were especially targeted. 

According to 'TyC Sports', the police, who reviewed videos of the scandal, tried to arrest the police. Boca could not leave the Mineirao stadium and they waited on the bus.

Not long afterwards, Tato Aguilera, of 'TyC Sports', reported that the whole Boca team went to the police station to clear up what happened. The plan was to prevent anyone being arrested. 

The situation is a difficult one. 'ESPN' went further than that and the police charged eight footballers: Villa, Zambrano, Rojo, Izquierdoz, Garcia, Gayoso, Somoza and Cascini. In one video, former Man Utd player Marcos Rojo is seen punching a security guard in the tunnel.

Those players gave a statement without breaking the bubble. Nobody got down from the bus and the consul asked the relevant questions. 

The delay in the police station forced the club to delay their return to Buenos Aires until Wednesday, Journalist Leandro Aguilera says no one will be arrested.
