We have outright pure fireworks in this one!

Recently in the EuroLeague, Real Madrid squared off against Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade, with the former losing the second straight game against the latter. Irritated with the results, multiple players from the Spanish club sparked up a massive brawl with the visiting team.

With less than two minutes to go in the game, Real Madrid‘s Serio LIull fouled Partizan’s Kevin Punter, but it wasn’t just any ordinary foul, it was violent. And as a result, this forced Punter to defend himself, squaring off against LIull. Shortly after, the fight then exploded into a full-out brawl.

Escalating things even further, Real‘s Guerschon Yabusele (who also played in the NBA) lifted up former league star and Partizan’s Dante Exum, and absolutely body slammed him on the court. While that was going on, you also had Lessort pushing down Dzanan Musa.

Here’s the unbelievably wild scene:

Here’s a closer look at that body slam on Exum:

When the brawl broke out, Partizan was up by a distant 95-80 score, but the game was unable to finish because of referees calling the game — with their reasoning being both sides would have lost too many players to being ejected (and coaching staff at that). Fair enough. (RELATED: Portland Trail Blazers Launching G-League Team, Leaving Phoenix Suns As Only Remaining NBA Franchise Without One)

In total, 21 players were kicked out of the game.

Insanity, so much insanity.
