The referee resolved the situation by showing yellow cards and then sending off Borelli, Gorosito's assistant. The fight between the Boca and Alianza players broke out after a foul by the Uruguayan on the Peruvian.
Amid threats, shoving, and grabs, the tension increased on the field, leading to physical confrontations.
Once again, violence marred a football match, revealing the lack of control and fair play from the players.
"It is unacceptable that such situations occur in a sport as popular as football. Players must learn to keep calm and resolve differences in a civilized manner," commented an outraged spectator.
