Fans brawl over a ruled out goal

Thanks to two goals from Enner Valencia, Ecuador was successful in defeating the host nation by 2-0. First goal from Enner Valencia was disqualified because it was on offside, however, a fan did not notice the real mistake and started shouting which sparked controversy. The brave Ecuadorian supporter also jokingly accused that the referee has been bought off by Qatar.

Though not amused, one Qatar fan yelled at the Ecuador supporter to "sit down and shut up" because he did not see the humour in the situation. Watch the video here:
