Copa Libertadores 2021

South American football :D :D :D

A Boca player punched a staff member from Atletico Mineiro, police threw tear gas into the Boca changing room,...
 
Ptobably a fraction offside (his knee) but I can't see how VAR could have ruled original decision "clear and obvious error"....
 
Another extremely poor VAR decision. The issue is that teams are refusing to listen to the referee and are demanding VAR.

Apparently in the first leg, the referee told Mineiro 5 times to restart the game but they refused. The referee eventually caved in.
 
Conmebol have released audio of the VAR discussion. The decision is pushed by the VAR referee, Julio Bascuñán (a Chilean to further fuel Argentine suspicion and anger).

The play is looked at initially because a Mineiro defender falls to the ground. They are looking for a foul. When that isn't given, Bascuñán starts to look deeper into the play.
 
Argentina's Health Ministry has stated that the entire Boca delegation must self-isolate for a week once they're back in Buenos Aires due to last night's aftermath. This means they'll have to play their next two league matches with reserves.

Horrible scenes from last night's match. Atletico fans stomping on the head of a Santa Fe supporter. Fortunately, after being taken to hospital, he is apparently out of danger after suffering a moderate traumatic brain trauma and a broken nose.

After the game the tv journalist asked Atlético Nacional's Andrés Andrade: How amazing is it having fans back?
