Christian Medina scored the second goal for Argentina. And, after this, the chaos started in the match.

Fans created uproar, game resumed after 2 hours with 3 minutes left

Moroccan fans, enraged by the second goal, were seen throwing bottles and burning firecrackers at the Argentine players. There were still 3 minutes left in injury time. But, seeing the deteriorating situation, it was suspended. However, this suspension was not official.


After 2 hours of hard work, when the security personnel on the field controlled the situation and evacuated the stadium, the remaining 3 minutes of play resumed.
