Argentine players to play against Brazil despite isolation order

SAO PAULO - Three Argentine footballers accused of breaking Brazil’s quarantine laws are set to play in Sunday’s World Cup qualifier between the two sides, even though Brazil’s health regulator ordered their immediate isolation just hours earlier.

The official line ups published by the South American Football Confederation (CONMEBOL) showed Argentina with Emiliano Martinez in goal, Cristian Romero in central defence and Giovani Lo Celso in midfield. The three were among four Argentine players who play in England’s Premier League. All four were accused of breaking Brazil's quarantine laws by health regulator Anvisa.
