Fists fly at Loftus Versfeld during Springboks match
Despite the Springboks’ victory over the Wallabies this past weekend, not all supporters left the match in great spirits.
One thing is for sure, South Africans are extremely passionate about their sports, especially rugby, but some might be a little too passionate.
Video footage shared on Twitter shows the moment a fight broke out at the past weekend’s rugby match between the Springboks and the Wallabies.

According to News24, The Blue Bulls Company (BBCo) apologised for the altercations that occurred at Loftus Versfeld during the Springboks and Wallabies Test.
"Whilst we had hoped for there to be zero altercations on the day, we, unfortunately, did receive one or two minor reports of disturbances emanating from physical altercations, but none of those resulted in injuries or hospitalisation," Hugo Kemp, the BBCo operations manager, told News24 in a statement.
