In the halftime of the duel between Boca Juniors and Racing Avellaneade (0:0) there was a scuffle between the Boca players Carlos Zambrano and Dario Benedetto according to reports in the sports newspaper “Ole”. Teammates had to intervene and separate the two brawlers. The trigger for the fist fight is said to have been an accusation by Bendetto against Zambrano on the way to the dressing room: “If we only look at the ball, if they cross, they score a goal, you idiot. Look at the man.”
Zambrano, who was active in the German Bundesliga for years, came back on the pitch with a swollen cheek. Scratches on his neck were discovered on his opponent.
Logically, the Boca vice-president did not like the behavior of his players at all: “You disregarded the fans. This is not boxing. From Monday to Saturday you can do what you want, but on Sunday you have to be brothers,” said Juan Roman Riquelme in the cabin.
