Brazil Campeanato 2017/2018

[RedPed]

A Brazilian game had 9 players sent off tonight!

Derby rivals Vitoria v Bahia had a crazy game where everything just about kicked off after a penalty and some dodgy goal celebrations.

It was a bad tempered affair leaving the ref no choice but to abandon the game as players kept getting dismissed.

That's got to be one for the record books.

The fight started because of this celebration

It was a game in Campeonato Baiano (the football league of the state of Bahia), not Campeonato Brasileiro Série A (the top tier national football league in Brazil)

BBC have done an article on it, complete madness

Fighting is entertainment.
