THE BATTLE OF SANTIAGO | The World Cup's Most Violent Match

#WorldCup #Italy #Chile
The now infamous rant by the BBC’s David Coleman would be forever remembered as a damning recollection of the game between Chile and Italy at the 1962 World Cup finals. The game has gone down in history as the most violent match in World Cup history, given the sheer amount of disorder which took place, including sendings off, punches being thrown and the intervention of the police on numerous occasions. What lead to the tensions between the two nations, and how did a football match on the grandest stage in the sport become an all out brawl? This is the story of the game now known as The Battle of Santiago.

The Italian players after the match ended claimed that Chilean players were spitting in their faces from the start.

[@Ezekiel903]

not only that, the English referee sendet two Italian from the field, but did nothing against Sanchez or other Chilean players! Italy knew about the US/UK interference that endet tragic for Chile, Italy had a big commy party, there is much more behind this game kzbin.info/www/bejne/rF7FoqVpaKaNptEsi=o5eUp_EQwSwvbSz5
