Referee knocks out losing coach with brutal karate kick after bottle attack

In a shocking turn of events, a referee delivered a knockout karate kick to the face of a losing coach who attempted to attack him with a bottle.

The dramatic scene unfolded after tensions boiled over during a game between Sport Huaquilla and Magdalena CEDEC in Ancash, north of the Peruvian capital Lima, during a Copa Peru match.

In a video shared on X, the referee brandished a red card after one of his linesmen appeared to point toward someone on the Magdalena bench.

However, he was met with the reaction of an angry coach who charged at him with a bottle in hand. Sensing danger, the referee struck him with a kick to the head, sending him to the ground and prompting police intervention.

The situation quickly escalated as furious players surrounded the referee and his assistants, seeking retaliation.

Amid the chaos, the match was suspended and left unfinished.
