id=\"mvp-content-main\">\n<p>New Delhi: The defending World Champions Argentina were set to face the five-times champion Brazil in the CONMEBOL FIFA 2026 World Cup Qualifiers on Tuesday morning, in an attempt to win their first ever CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifiers match on Brazilian soil.<\/p>\n<p>However, the match which was highly anticipated by the fans for its footballing calibre, is now making headlines due to some unwanted drama, that unfolded in the stands before the match.<\/p>\n<p>The match was scheduled to kick off at 6:00 a.m. IST, but while the two teams were taking their positions for the national anthem, the camera shifted towards the stands, where an all-out brawl was on display between the Brazilian and Argentinian fans.<\/p>\n<p>The fight took an ugly turn when the local police force of Brazil decided to open a Lathi Charge against the Argentinian fans, which upset the visiting side\u2019s captain Lionel Messi.<\/p>\n<p>Messi, who was clearly not happy with the treatment of the Brazilian police towards Argentinian fans, after having a deep discussion with the match officials, asked his teammates to get back into the tunnel as a sign of protest against the excessive use of force by the Brazilian police.<\/p>\n<p>After much deliberation Messi and the team finally walked out to play the game, delaying the start by 30 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Before the walkout, the Argentinian goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez even tried to get into the stands to confront one of the Brazilian police officers.<\/p>\n<h4>Check out the video below:<\/h4>\n<blockquote
