🤯 Copa do Brasil match erupts in brawl during penalty shootout Could this be another episode of the famous "pure juice of Brazilian football"? Confiança surprised everyone by eliminating Vila Nova from the Copa do Brasil this Wednesday (18). After a goalless draw in regular time, the Dragão do Bairro Industrial ousted the Tigre in a penalty shootout by 5 x 3 at Onésio Brasileiro Alvarenga.

The "highlight" was the brawl that broke out after the fourth penalty kick by the Sergipe team in Goiânia. This resulted in four expulsions. Was that necessary?

Confiança was already in the lead after Higor missed for Vila. Then Maikon Aquino took the shot, made it 4 x 2, and celebrated by asking the Goianian fans for silence. That was the "cue" for the chaos to begin.

Check out what happened below. The brawl resulted in four red cards. Matheus Emiliano (reserve goalkeeper for Confiança), Ariel Mamede (Vila's assistant), Eduardo Moura (Confiança's defender), and Dellatorre (Vila's forward) were the ones sent off.
