When goals are conceded it's a familiar sight to see defenders holding an inquest, arguing amongst themselves about who was at fault.

Not often do we say that kind of row turn into a full blown punch up.

But that's what happened in the Brazilian state leagues as two Placido de Castro players started brawling after the team conceded their fifth goal to rivals Rio Branco.

... there was still 10 minutes left in the game as well.

Rio Branco went on to win 5-2.
