On Wednesday, violent clashes broke out at the Libertadores de America stadium in Buenos Aires during a Copa Sudamericana match between Argentina's Independiente and Universidad de Chile, resulting in 90 arrests and 10 injuries. The game was initially suspended and later abandoned as fans threw objects, including stones, sticks, and bottles, at opposing supporters in chaotic scenes. The match was called off during the 48th minute with the score tied at 1-1, following tensions that escalated significantly at halftime, according to South China Morning Post, Al Jazeera, and Dawn.

Witnesses reported that home supporters attacked a group of visiting fans, stripping some of their clothes and cornering an individual who had to jump from the stands to escape. The police responded to the violence by detaining 90 individuals who allegedly instigated the chaos, as confirmed by a security ministry source. Moreover, at least one serious injury was reported, with Chile's ambassador indicating that some victims suffered stab wounds, according to South China Morning Post and Dawn.

In the wake of the violence, Chilean President Gabriel Boric condemned the unrest on social media, calling for justice against those involved. He also criticized the match organizers for their handling of safety and security, which had been a point of contention from fans leaving the stadium. Officials from both clubs denounced the violence, with Independiente’s president branding the behavior of rival supporters as "truly reprehensible." Players from both teams attempted to quell tensions among the crowd before the match was abandoned, as reported by Al Jazeera, South China Morning Post, and Dawn.
