Most soccer riots take place in the stands and are contained to just the fans, but during a game between Barracas Bolivar and General Lamadrid, two teams in the Argentinian Primera C league the teams decided to get in on the fun action too.
Players from Lamadrid, upset with Bolivar fans started arguing with the fans while the players were on the sideline. Then, seeing their fellow teammates and fans in trouble, the players on the field decided to join the fray. Soon enough a massive brawl was in full-force, causing riot police to be called in.
Ultimately, the referee got involved, he handed out 18 red cards to the Lamadrid side, all 11 starting players were sent off, as well as 7 subs. Lamadrid will also be short-handed for their next game as their entire starting lineup has been suspended. Before the match was suspended Bolivar was up 3-0, and were awarded the victory.
