I saw this game live last year. It was one of the most bizarre things I've ever seen in a football match.

The Libertadores Boca Jrs-River plate match also ended in a similar fashion.

The difference I see is that ordinary futbol ultras aren't backed by armies so there's a different limit on how far things can escalate in a club match. Serbia-Albania [1] created an international incident.
