Massive bench-clearing brawl in Austrian youth hockey league
Published
During a 15 and under youth championship game in Austria between EC Red Bull and UPS Vienna Caps there was a massive brawl. Some pushing and shoving in front of one of the benches quickly escalated to players leaving the benches and throwing punches. All of their helmets and gloves stayed on so it seems safe to assume that no one was injured during the mass chaos.
Some of the players looked completely disinterested in fighting or helping their teammates out and started gesturing to the crowd to get louder. Pretty sad that a youth hockey game devolved to this, clearly the referees and coaches were no help in breaking it up and had to wait for it to stop.
