Changing room chat: Assault brought into sharp focus
A BRAZILIAN player was taken to a police station after using a photographer’s camera stand to hit an opponent.
Television images showed reserve Aguia midfielder Alexandre Carioca striking Remo defender Aldivan in the back as players from both teams shoved each other near the sidelines following a heated dispute. Carioca then picked up the monopod stand near him and came running to hit Aldivan as he bent down to tie his bootlaces.
Carioca was later freed from police custody because Aldivan didn’t want to press charges.
