CHAOS! Uruguayan Soccer Players Go Into the Stands to Fight Colombian Fans in Shocking Brawl
Wednesday night’s Copa America match between Uruguay and Colombia ended in ugly fashion when Uruguayan players fought Colombia fans in the stands.
Colombia beat Uruguay 1-0 to advance to the final against Argentina on Sunday. Moments after the final whistle, a number of Uruguayan players could be seen in the stands among a sea of Colombian fans. The players were all crowded in the aisle between two sections of seats in Charlotte, North Carolina’s Bank of America stadium. A few rows up, a Uruguayan fan was shown on the air fighting with a Colombian fan.
One Colombian fan threw a fan into the crowd of Uruguayan players as several other fans seemed to challenge them to get closer and fight them.
Suddenly, someone from the Uruguayan side threw a punch at a Colombian fan as he turned away from the action. This caused another Colombian fan to punch the man back. Then, a second Uruguayan fan got involved and the scene grew even more chaotic. Uruguayan players then pushed to the front of the commotion to break it up. As the Fox Sports camera moved away from the scene, the crowd of Uruguayan could be seen surging closer to the Colombians.
