Indonesia soccer match chaos seen on video, stampede death toll at 125

The incident after an Indonesian soccer match Saturday is one of the deadliest sports incidents in the world.

Video from the chaos that erupted after a soccer match in Indonesia Saturday night shows just how horrific the clash between fans and police was. 

Panic and a disorderly run for exits after police fired tear gas at the match to drive away fans upset with their team’s loss left at least 125 dead, most of whom were trampled or suffocated, making it one of the deadliest sports events in the world.

"Unfortunately, this incident has certainly injured our soccer image," Youth and Sports Minister Zainudin Amali said.

Gianni Infantino, the president of soccer's international governing body FIFA, called the deaths at the stadium "a dark day for all involved in football and a tragedy beyond comprehension," while Indonesian President Joko Widodo ordered an investigation of security procedures. While FIFA has no control over domestic games, it has advised against the use of tear gas at soccer stadiums.
