BARCELONA star Inigo Martinez has been accused of spitting at Inter Milan defender Francesco Acerbi.
A brawl was sparked by the incident as Acerbi reacted angrily to his opponent.
It came following Hakan Calhanoglu’s penalty which put 2-0 up.
Martinez tried to distract the Turk before he converted from the spot, according to Marca .
That prompted Acerbi to celebrate by running past Martinez, shouting in his face.
Martinez is accused of responding by spitting at the Italian.
That is why Acerbi sparked a melee as he confronted his fellow defender.
He was ushered away by his own team-mates and Pedri, and began pointing out Martinez as he fired across a verbal volley.
Referee Szymon Marciniak also intervened to calm the situation and VAR got involved to check whether a red card offence was committed.
The review ended with no players receiving a sanction, not even a yellow card.
But the incident did not end there, as after the half-time whistle blew moments later many on the Inter bench ran on the pitch to get involved - fortunately no further fracas was sparked.
Acerbi later had the last laugh, too, as he to send the tie to extra-time, where team-mate Davide Frattesi netted Inter’s winner.
