Pitch-invader from Liverpool's Champions League final victory jailed as Copa America stunt fails

The pitch-invader from Liverpool's Champions League final win over Tottenham has been jailed after repeating the antics at the Copa America on Sunday.

The Reds' victory against Spurs in Madrid on June 1 was temporarily interrupted in the first half as Kinsey Wolanski streaked across the Wanda Metropolitano turf.

Stewards quickly escorted Wolanski off the field in the Spanish capital, but that brief appearance naturally saw her gain the attention across the world.

Wolanski, who saw her Instagram following grow from 300,000 to 3.1 million after the stunt, was up to her old tricks with boyfriend Vitaly Zdorovetskiy in Brazil over the weekend.

The pair disguised themselves as Brazilian fans in order to gain access to the Copa America final where the hosts squared off against Peru.

The pair managed to get to their seats inside the Maracana stadium but her attempts to once again bolt onto the field were thwarted by an army of security guards.

Wolanksi shared pictures of their disguises on social media and revealed the botched attempt saw the duo jailed.

She wrote: "I’ll admit Copa America you definitely won but we had one hell of an adventure trying.

"Flew to brazil, dressed up in disguise, made it to our seats and it ended in Vitalys bad a** getting tackled by 20 security guards.

"We are out of jail and now enjoying our time in Brazil!"
