CONCACAF says the Toronto Police Service was doing its job after Club America manager Miguel Herrera alleged officers hit three Club America personnel during a halftime scuffle on Tuesday night.
Herrera claimed during his postmatch news conference that players Agustin Marchesin and Bruno Valdez were assaulted during Tuesday's first leg of the CONCACAF Champions League at Toronto FC, and repeated at least four times that he wanted the incident reported.
CONCACAF spokesperson Brent Latham told ESPN the confederation has reviewed the available video and is still investigating the entire incident.
"We're reviewing all of the footage and still collecting video both from the incident itself and what sparked it," Latham said. "We're still interviewing people.
"If it does turn that there is anything that needs to be referred to the disciplinary committee, then obviously we'll do that in due course, once the interviews have been made. We haven't gotten enough information to make that call yet, but we will."
But the regional soccer governing body's present stance is that it has seen nothing untoward on the part of the Toronto Police Service.
"In terms of the interaction with the Club America player with the police officer, from the video that we have now -- we're not a judge, so we're not in a position to adjudicate what means what -- it looks like the police officer is doing his job in terms of trying to separate the players," Latham said. "We don't see anything that's crazy."
A Toronto Police Service spokesperson told ESPN there is no investigation pending because no formal complaint has been filed by Club America or any of the club's personnel.
"There's no complaint that any kind of assault occurred," police spokesperson Katrina Arrogante said. "There were no arrests, and no one has been detained by police. We have nothing further than that."
Video of the incident appears to show Toronto FC midfielder Jonathan Osorio taking an elbow to the chin, while police attempted to separate Toronto and Club America players as they made their way to their respective locker rooms.
Osorio told the Toronto Sun that America staff confronted Sebastian Giovinco and accused him of embellishing to earn a ninth-minute penalty, and with regard to Osorio's allegations, the spokesperson said CONCACAF is continuing to gather information.
In addition to his allegations about the Toronto police, Herrera was highly critical of the officiating crew for the game, saying they were "acting like clowns" for forcing the Club America players to change out of cold-weather tights before the game because they were the wrong color. Such comments could see him run afoul of CONCACAF regulations.
"We'll review those comments as we always do," said CONCACAF's Latham. "There are clauses about negative comments about logistics and officiating. We'll review those comments and see in terms of the context of the comments what fits, and we could take disciplinary action if it's merited."
The second leg is scheduled for next Tuesday, and Latham said CONCACAF's goal is to make sure emotions stay in check.
"I think everyone -- CONCACAF, the clubs, MLS and Liga MX -- are all interested in the end product on the field," Latham said. "We've had great matches, this is a great tournament, and everyone wants to focus to be on the games.
"We're working with everyone to make sure that everyone understands that the focus needs to be on the field and that we want to try to defuse this situation as fast as possible."
