The energy in the stadium was WILD last night. Security at the stadium didn't do their job. The players families were being attacked.

Uruguayans made a big mistake hitting Colombian fans, once they realized their mistake came with the idea of saying they were protecting their families.they are know for being hot headed.

Why would anyone bring newborn babies to an extremely hot, loud crowded stadium? There was a fight on the field before the one in the stands. Uruguay got mad because they lost and had to make up an excuse for their bad behavior.
