Just in case a penalty shootout didn't provide enough drama for the fans who attended the Paraguay-Venezuela Copa America semifinal matchup on Wednesday, the two teams decided to toss in a postgame brawl for good measure.

After playing to a scoreless tie, the game moved to penalty kicks, where Paraguay was able to prevail by a 5-3 tally. But while the match was officially over at that point, the action was far from it.

Players and coaches from both teams got involved in a massive fight, which ended with police escorting the two sides off the field. There's been no word yet on whether anyone on Paraguay will be suspended for Sunday's Copa America final against Uruguay.
