Video has emerged of a furious row between Roma teammates Paulo Dybala, Bryan Cristante and Matias Soulé, who were pushing and shoving each other during a 4-1 defeat to Cardiff City.
The scuffle erupted straight after the Giallorossi conceded the fourth goal of the friendly match in Wales on Saturday, and were complaining to the referee about an earlier foul in the build-up.

The footage taken from a spectator in the stands seemed to show Cristante criticising Soulé for not helping out the defence, then Dybala responded angrily by shoving his captain.
Another clip shows the argument between Dybala and Cristante getting so heated that Wesley came over to separate them.
Both players only recently signed new contracts with Roma, after securing qualification for the Champions League.
Soulé is known to be on the market for €30m plus add-ons, and has been offered to Milan, but so far there are no firm buyers.
It has been a tough pre-season for Gian Piero Gasperini’s side, who fumbled a 3-0 lead to draw with Cannes after Wesley was sent off, then lost 4-1 to Cardiff City.
