Acuna Sparks Post-Match Chaos After Inter’s Club World Cup Win

A chaotic scene unfolded after Inter Milan’s 2-0 victory over River Plate in the Club World Cup, as River’s Marcos Acuna suddenly charged at Denzel Dumfries in the tunnel. The Netherlands defender was heading off the pitch amid crowd unrest when Acuna, visibly furious, had to be restrained by teammates, Inter’s Nicolo Barella, and the coaching staff.

Francesco Pio Esposito and Alessandro Bastoni scored for Inter, eliminating River Plate from the tournament despite their four-point group-stage tally. Tensions ran high throughout the match, with Acuna growing increasingly agitated — especially after Lucas Martinez Quarta’s red card in the 66th minute, which appeared to trigger the post-match incident.
