“I want to see if you’ll leave with an escort. Come at me, I’ll get you outside, it’ll just be you and me, you son of a b****, I want to kill you, you piece of s***.”

The match was able to restart but trouble erupted again after Davi Fernandes Bittencourt put Mamore 3-1 up in stoppage-time.

He apparently gestured to the Uberlandia and shouted: “This is Mamore, go f*** yourself! Suck it! Go f*** yourself!”
