Kuwait-Lebanon Soccer Match Turns Into Brawl, Causes Military to Fire Warning Shots (Video)

There was nothing "friendly" about a recent friendly match between Kuwait and Lebanon. In fact, things got downright scary between the two clubs.

Yahoo's Dirty Tackle blog has found video of a match between the two countries that morphed into a huge brawl, during Kuwait's 6-0 win in Lebanon.

The bench-clearing brawl is crazy enough, but after a few minutes of fighting on the pitch, the action spills onto the sideline where things get real dicey. From there, the military was actually forced to fire off warning shots to try and keep the peace.

It was the type of throwdown that would have made Ron Burgundy and his news team very proud.

See the whole thing play out in the video below.
