There was drama in the Brazilian clash against Argentina on sunday evening in the world cup qualifiers, as the match was stopped after Brazilian health officials came into the pitch in less than 4th minutes of the game and tried to detain four Argentina players-Emiliano Martinez, Emiliano Buendia, Christian Romero and Giovani Lo Celso. The health officials entered the pitch accompanied by the police officials to keep these players out of the pitch claiming that they allegedly lied on documents they filled on entry to the Brazil country. Since the players were  from UK, they had to go for  isolation as the Brazilian rules state that any person entering their country having recently been in UK must observe a period of 14 days in isolation. After the scandalous scenes, the Argentina squad that included Captain Lionel Messi went off the pitch, returning to the dressing room, while Brazil team stayed on the pitch.
