Brazilian Under-20 Football Match Abandoned After Record 53 Red Cards in Mass BrawlPreviousNext

A Brazilian Under-20 football semifinal between Uberlandia and Mamore ended prematurely after a massive brawl led to a record 51 to 53 red cards being issued. The conflict began after Mamore's third goal when player Davi taunted the opposing bench, provoking Uberlandia's goalkeeping coach to confront him. The altercation escalated to involve players, coaching staff, officials, and even ball boys, requiring police intervention. The referee declared the match abandoned due to safety concerns, with reports of post-match vandalism and threats against officials.
