Overview
- The semifinal between Uberlândia and Mamoré collapsed into violence after a third-goal celebration ignited confrontations that escalated across the pitch.
- Referee Fernando Patrick suspended the game and recorded 51 expulsions in the match report, listing 43 players and eight members of team staff.
- Polícia Militar de Minas Gerais entered the stadium to break up the fights and stadium officials later logged heavy damage, including about 14 broken doors plus damaged sinks, showers, toilets, benches and electrical wiring.
- Mamoré is shown as the 3-1 winner, but the result was overshadowed by the disorder and will likely trigger automatic suspensions and further disciplinary measures from the state federation.
- The incident surpasses the prior 36-red-card mark from a 2011 Argentine match and has spread widely on social media, raising questions about discipline at youth competitions and potential sanctions for players, coaches and club officials.
