Carlos Tevez has denied clashing John Terry because of the Wayne Bridge row but revealed you "lose your legs" for adultery in Argentina.
The build-up to last weekend's meeting between Manchester City and Chelsea at Stamford Bridge was dominated by how Bridge would react to Terry.
Bridge refused to shake his former team-mate's hand before kick-off after the City full-back had withdrawn from England duty earlier that week, claiming his presence in the squad would be 'potentially divisive'.
The second half of City's 4-2 win over Chelsea saw Tevez and Terry clash, but the Argentina striker says the confrontation was not fuelled by the Chelsea captain's alleged affair with Bridge's ex-girlfriend.
"I didn't fight with Terry because of that," Tevez is quoted in The Sun.
"I fought with him because he took me by the shirt and I didn't like it. I became furious with him because of that."
Tevez added: "It's complicated to say something about what Terry did to Bridge.
"I don't think you can do that with the wife of another player.
"It's wrong. In my opinion, Terry has no moral code for what he did to Bridge.
"In my neighbourhood if you do that, you lose your legs, or more - you don't survive."
The former Manchester United frontman also revealed he has 'always had problems' with Chelsea midfielder Michael Ballack.
He continued: "I have always had problems with Ballack but, you know, it is just football, not personal issues between us.
"I don't know, maybe he doesn't like me, as I don't like him.
"On the field, I have never understood what he is saying to me, but I am sure he didn't understand me either."
