A shocking event in Argentina.
During the second league match between Chakrita Juniors and Deportivo Mapaya, in which Chakrita won with a score of 0:2, a violent confrontation developed between two camps of the team's fans.
During the confrontation, one of the fans pulled out a knife and stabbed 43-year-old Jorge Duran, who was rushed to the hospital in the nearby capital of Buenos Aires and later died of his injuries.

On the field, the teams continued to play for several more minutes until the halftime break, which was a bit longer, after which the teams returned to the grass.
The local police announced that they are launching an investigation to identify the killer and claim that alcohol and drugs were the cause of the unfortunate event.
The team hastened to issue an official statement on social media in which they wrote: "In order to find out what happened, we made available to the police all the cameras we have at our disposal in the stadium. If we find out that our fans were involved in the event, they will be banned for life, because they are not in line with the values we believe in." .
