The match that decided the Campeonato Mineiro, between Cruzeiro and Atlético Mineiro, ended in regrettable scenes of widespread violence at the Mineirão stadium. The game was interrupted for more than ten minutes, with only 30 seconds remaining in the six minutes of stoppage time. Hulk was at the center of the brawl. The chaos began in the Atlético penalty area after a clash between Christian and goalkeeper Everson. The Galo keeper did not like the play and retaliated against the midfielder, which led Cruzeiro players to confront Everson, triggering a brawl. In the midst of the chaos, Lucas Romero struck Atlético's goalkeeper with a flying kick, after he had already been attacked by Matheus Henrique. The response from Mineiro players was immediate, with shoves and punches. Cássio attempted to confront defender Lyanco but was stopped. Shortly after, Lyanco got into a fistfight with midfielder Gérson, ultimately being kicked by Cruzeiro's goalkeeper. The former FC Porto player Hulk was also at the center of the aggression, being targeted by several flying kicks from defender Lucas Villalba. Hulk was out of control and responded with punches to several players, even kicking forward Kaio Jorge. REGRETTABLE SCENES!
