Chaos as Brazil v Argentina match abandoned after officials storm pitch in Covid-19 row – video

Brazil's World Cup qualifier with Argentina in Sao Paulo was suspended after just seven minutes as health authorities entered the field of play amid farcical scenes at Neo Quimica Arena. Three Premier League players - the Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez and Tottenham's Cristian Romero and Giovani Lo Celso - were on the pitch while a fourth, Aston Villa's Emiliano Buendia, was in the stands. The quartet had apparently violated Brazilian regulations stating that travellers who have been in the UK, South Africa or India during the previous 14 days are forbidden from entering the country. The bizarre scenes saw officials, accompanied by police officers, march on to the pitch and bring proceedings to a halt.
