Why fan violence still sullies Latin American football
Santiago — CHL Santiago, Aug 21, 2025 : Images of a fan jumping from the stands to escape a beating as bottles, rocks and seats fly through the air at a game between Chilean and Argentine clubs in Buenos Aires on Wednesday highlight the enduring problem of violence in Latin American football.
