Mumbai, November 6: Brazilian police were investigating at least three soccer fans after a pig's head was thrown onto the field during a league game between bitter rivals Corinthians and Palmeiras. Corinthians beat Palmeiras 2-0 on Monday evening at the NeoQuimica Arena in Sao Paulo, but the big talking point was the incident in the 39th minute when the score was still 0-0. The pig's head was thrown onto the field as Palmeiras was preparing to take a corner and Corinthians striker Yuri Alberto ran over to kick it away.
