Mexico manager Miguel Herrera reportedly punched a journalist just hours after his team beat Jamaica 3-1 in the Gold Cup final.
According to AS Mexico (h/t Seth Vertelney of Goal), the victim of the apparent attack was Christian Martinoli of TV Azteca, and the incident occurred at Philadelphia airport on Monday, just a day after their triumph. Tom Marshall of ESPN shared reports on his Twitter feed:

Per the aforementioned piece, the journalist had apparently been very critical of El Tri’s displays on the way to the Gold Cup final, and tensions were raised when the two men bumped into each other at the airport.
