Women’s soccer match descends into chaos as mass brawl breaks out and punches thrown
A mass brawl was sparked during a women’s football match as the game descended into chaos and punches were thrown, with one player knocked to the floor
A brawl broke out during a women’s football match as several players apparently yanked hair and threw punches.
The fight started when a player was being obstructed from taking a throw in. The player in black turned to her opponent, wearing an all-pink kit, to complain about her dirty tactics at the touchline. The pair then squared up to each other on the pitch.
They apparently threw punches at each other, prompting teammates to run over to separate them. Multiple players seemed to yank each other’s hair and trade blows after the initial row.

When their tempers cooled, the footballer in black was seen lying on the ground and holding her face while a teammate comforted her.
The brawl took place at an amateur seven-a-side match in the city of Cali, Colombia, earlier this week.
The players were wearing the kits of Brazilian teams Cruzeiro Esporte Clube and Clube Atlético Mineiro – a common practice in Colombian recreational leagues.
The video went viral on X with 287,000 views and hundreds of comments, as reported by What’s The Jam.
One local said: “First rule for anyone filming: don’t get involved in the fight, you have a purpose, do it right.”
“They are already copying the bad habits of men’s football,” added a second.
Another remarked: “Years ago, women used to say that men go crazy for football…”
While a fourth joked: “How many extensions and false eyelashes were lost?”
