This #game in #Queretaro vs #atlas is the craziest soccer riot I’ve ever seen on live TV. #LigaMX Queretaro fans decided to bum rush the field and just beat up everyone wearing an atlas shirt in the whole stadium. Women and children fleeing in panic.
Due to an outbreak of violence that spilled over onto the field, the game played by the ‘Gallos Blancos’ from Querétaro and the ‘Zorros’ from Atlas, for the ninth day of the Clausura-2022 Mexican soccer tournament at the La Corregidora stadium, in the city of Querétaro (downtown), was suspended. Unofficial versions speak that there could be deaths after what happened.
The 63rd minute of the match was being played when a confrontation between supporters of both clubs began in the stands.
Given the inability to resolve the facts, the few security elements of the stadium opened the accesses to the field so that people could get to safety with the game underway.
Before the invasion, the game stopped immediately, the soccer players went to the locker room area and the field began to fill with people; some people, including families with children, sought to be safe while others took the violence to the field with more exchanges of blows; On one side of the field, the VAR module was vandalized, the monitor was destroyed.
“Due to the conditions in the stadium, the central referee decides to suspend the match with the score: Gallos Blancos de Querétaro 0-1 Atlas,” Liga MX (Mexican first division) reported.
“The resumption date will be announced in the next few hours.” Mikel Arriola, executive president of Liga MX, launched a message rejecting these events on the social network Twitter: “Those responsible for the lack of security in the stadium will be punished exemplarily. The safety of our players and fans is a priority! “.
