Things got ugly before the game between Brazil and Argentina last night. Both sets of fans clashed against each other with local authorities charging on the away fans. Lionel Messi and his men were distraught at the police’s actions with the game starting after a brief delay. During his recent appearance on ESPN FC, a former Venezuelan star turned pundit slammed the Brazil Federation for their lapse in judgment.

Argentina bagged a historic win over Brazil last night. Lionel Scaloni’s side ended a decade-long losing streak against Brazil in the World Cup Qualifiers, thanks to a stunning header from Nicolas Otamendi.

Ale Moreno slams Brazilian Federation

Former Venezuelan star turned pundit Ale Moreno was present with ESPN talking to host Mark Donaldson. Moreno was less than pleased with the Brazil Federation’s preparations, claiming they were just asking for trouble.

Moreno, during the show, stated, “It’s a major oversight from the Brazilian Federation. I, this is. I don’t know about the rest of the world, but this is COLEMBOL 101 when it comes to how to distribute fans in the stadium.”

He then added, “It is automatic that the visiting fans will be put in an area that is far away from everybody else. Not behind the goal and a lower bowl right in the middle of all Brazilian fans. Uh, that’s just asking for trouble.”

Despite the tussle between the two sets of fans, both sides went on with the game following a brief delay. Lionel Messi and his men made history last night as they bagged a big win over their arch-rivals away from home.

Lionel Messi and Argentina bag a historic win over Brazil

The Albiceleste made history with their win over Brazil last night. The side became the first team to defeat the Selecao at their home grounds during the World Cup Qualifiers. While both sides seemed equal on all footing, Argentina broke the deadlock in the 63rd minute with Nicolas Otamendi heading the ball into the back of the net.

The win also saw Lionel Scaloni’s men break Argentina’s losing streak against Brazil in the World Cup Qualifiers. Argentina since 1998 had not beaten the Selecao even once in four away fixtures, suffering three defeats, while one game finished in a draw. Lionel Messi will surely be happy with his team’s performance as the win has helped the Albiceleste maintain their position at the top of the table.
