Holy sweet mother in heaven.
As friendlies go, this is about as Argentinian as they get.
The Copa Ciudad de la Plata muck-about between Estudiantes and Gimnasia was abandoned after a violent outbreak of handbags escalated to a full-on, somebody's-going-to-get-hurt brawl.
Everything was going swimmingly Alvaro Pereira's flying studs were attacked by Facundo Oreja's head.
Then, it just got worse and worse to the point where a bad tackle towards the end culminated in one of the most shocking coming-togethers of all time - by about 30 people.
The 'keeper takes awful punishment but, by God, he handed out enough whilst he was still on his feet. We've no idea where his team mates were.
Down with this sort of thing.
