Things began with a normal-looking shoving match between Quincy Promes and Wilmar Barrios
But Rodrigao’s kicks turned things nasty
It was soon all out chaos as substitutes joined in and started throwing punches

Despite all eyes being focused on Qatar, league leaders Zenit and Spartak grabbed the headlines for all the wrong reasons as they battled in a cup clash.
The two sides won’t play again until March as Russia enters its winter break with Zenit six points clear of Spartak in their Premier League, but they left their mark in more ways than one.

With a cup meeting ending 0-0 in normal time, a coming together between Zenit’s Wilmar Barrios and former Netherlands winger Quincy Promes quickly turned nasty.

Referee Vladimir Moskalev struggled to break up a shoving match before Zenit’s Brazilian defender Rodrigao started attempting to kick his opponent.

That saw a flood of players intervene, with Rodrigao being punched in the face as the bench flew onto the pitch

Spartak substitute Alexander Sobolev then jumped into action as if it was a boxing match, as coaching staff and bundles of players appeared on the pitch.
Sobolev began throwing haymakers
And soon everyone was on the pitch
The referee began producing red cards
But he had no control over the situation

The referee had already begun dishing out red cards as the chaos began to subside, with Barrios, Rodrgio and former Barcelona man Malcom sent off for Zenit, while Spartako trio Sobolev, Shamar Nicholson and Aleksandr Selikhov receiving their marching orders too.

Spartak’s match report of the game said: “The fight still happened. It all started with the junction of Promes with Barrios, as well as the exchange of blows by the same Rodrigao and Nicholson.

“And this time much more desperate. Everyone fought, including substitutes and staff. As a result, after a long pause, Moskalev removed this ‘couple’, as well as Sobolev, Malcolm, Barrios and Selikhov, who took a particularly active part in the events.”
