Player attacked at Fluminense training ground
A player was attacked as furious Fluminense fans invaded a training session on Tuesday.
Media reports said that shots were fired into the air by security guards and the club said it would investigate, although it added that none of its employees carried guns.
The protest followed back-to-back home defeats, and television pictures showed around 30 supporters running onto the field as the players were training.
One man was seen to aim a punch at midfielder Diguinho who hit back and tried to escape through a side door.
Reports said fans retreated after a security guard fired two shots into the air.
