A violent mass brawl was seen suddenly erupting following the final whistle of the FIFA World Cup final.
The news arose after Spain defeated Argentina 1-0 in extra time at MetLife Stadium.
The chaos started the same second the full-time whistle blew, and Spanish substitutes rushed the pitch to celebrate Ferran Torres' 106th-minute winning goal. Frustrated after failing to defend this title, several Argentine players lost their composure, turning the pitch into a physical battleground.
The physical altercations involved several leading players and staff members. The Argentine midfielder aggressively charged towards Spain's defender Eric Garcia, striking him with an open hand and grabbing him near the neck before he shoved him in a forceful manner to the ground.
