Mexico coach punched journalist?
Mexico coach Miguel Herrera Monday denied punching a journalist at the Philadelphia airport, one day after Mexico clinched the Gold Cup with a 3-1 win over Jamaica.
Christian Martinoli of TV Azteca told AS Mexico that he ran into the Mexico team after clearing security at the airport where Herrera punched him in the neck after threatening him in the security line.
"He threatened me, he challenged me to fight and he told me 'this is how it is going to be every time I see you,'" Martinoli said.
Herrera, however, denied striking Martinoli, admitting only to pushing him.
"I pushed him," Herrera told El Universal newspaper. "We were arguing and I pushed him. I'm not that stupid (to hit him)."
