Last night, in the third round of the Club World Cup, Inter defeated River Plate 2-0 and secured passage to the knockout stage.
But what made the most noise from this match was the big clash between Denzel Dumfries and Marcos Akunja.
The fight between the players began shortly before the referee's final whistle and the situation quickly escalated.

Marcos Akunja and Denzel Dumfries were at the center of the conflict, as teammates and staff intervened to separate them.
According to reports from "Sportitalia", the clash was caused by a racist insult issued by Akunja towards Dumfries, which prompted the Dutchman's harsh reaction.
Dumfries attempted to physically confront Akunja after the match, inviting him into the stadium's locker room.
However, River Plate staff and Inter players managed to stop him and avoid escalating the situation.
The Dutchman stood in the stadium tunnel waiting for Akunja, however, there was no further collision, as the Argentine defender was stopped on the field by the rest of his team.
Their quick intervention prevented the incident from becoming more serious, and it is expected that tournament authorities will review the incident.
ABSOLUTE SHAME!
