Portugal national coach Carlos Queiroz was involved in a fight with sports commentator Jorge Baptista at the Lisbon airport this morning, according to reports in the country.

The pair were allegedly sitting close to each other, waiting to board the plane that would take them to Warsaw, where the draw for the Euro 2012 qualifying will take place on Sunday.

It is believed it all started with a heated discussion between the two, after which they exchanged some punches, before the other passengers in the boarding room put a stop to the fight.

Portugal have been placed in Pot 1 for the Euro 2012 qualifying draw, which will start at 1200 CET.
