A huge fight involving the coaches, staff and substitutes of both teams started during the second half of a French fourth-division match between the reserve teams of Sarlat and Belves this past Sunday.
The game between the two amateur teams dissolved into one big brawl late in the second half (at 1:34.35 in the video below), starting when a Belves player was taken out of chipping the ball over the Sarlat defence.
After the initial fight was dissolved, both captains were called and spoken to by the referee, only for the Belves captain to start attacking the Sarlat captain.
