During a tense semifinal of the Argentine football tournament between Racing and Tigre, Racing coach Gustavo Costas attempted to relieve stress by smoking in the dugout. His action may now be considered a punishable offense.

The match, goalless until penalties, reached peak excitement. Coach Costas lit a cigarette to calm nerves, trying to hide behind the bench and asking his assistant to stand in front to conceal it.

However, stadium cameras captured him smoking. After Racing won and advanced to the semifinals, the coach celebrated enthusiastically. Tournament organizers are now considering possible disciplinary action for smoking in a prohibited area.
