Eight of Mexico's Copa America squad were sent home on Tuesday after being served a six month suspension and fines by the national football association after breaking disciplinary rules in an incident on Saturday. The incident? The suspended players invited prostitutes to their hotel rooms prior to their 1-0 win over Ecuador in the final preparation match for Copa America. It was then that the Mexican players reported stolen possessions to coach Luis Fernando Tena. The losses were then reported to the hotel, whose manager told the media that he has video footage of women entering into the players' rooms with the kit man. The director of the national team selection would not go into details and said that the code was broken and punishment had to be dished out.
Eight replacements were immediately flown into Buenos Aires as the suspended Mexican players were flown home to Mexico.
Boys will be boys.
