'What kind of enemy did I have in my past life….'

The match between Inter Milan (Italy) and River Plate (Argentina) in Group E of the Club World Cup was marred by scuffles.

Inter Milan won 2-0 in Seattle on the 26th (Korea time) in the third Group E match against the '2025 FIFA Club World Cup' River Plate. As a result, Inter Milan advanced to the round of 16 with two wins and one draw and first place in the group, while River Plate was eliminated with one win, one draw and one loss and third place in the group.




The match was played in a harsh atmosphere, with River Plate losing two players due to the exit, and River Plate's defeat, which was undernumbered, was a natural result in a way.

The incident happened after the game. Inter Milan's Denzel Doompris and River Plate's Marcos Acuña collided head-on, which later caused the two teams to scramble.

The two, who met as match-up opponents on the side, also had a war of nerves during the game. Acuña made an uneasy scene throughout, catching Doompris making a dribble breakthrough and making a big distance.

In the end, after the whistle at the end of the game, Doompris and Acuña argued face-to-face, and it turned out to be a group clash as Acuña rushed toward Doompris heading back to the locker room.

Doompris was stopped by his teammates when players and staff from both teams rushed in in a scuffle, and later it was a violence that occurred when Acuña chased Doompris. Since then, River Plate supporters have thrown water bottles and other items to Doomfree as he leaves the stadium.

What foreign media paid attention to here is the tough bad relationship between Doomfree and Acuña. This was because this was not the first time the two clashed.




Dutch national team Doompris and Argentine national team Acuña clashed in the quarterfinals of the '2022 Qatar World Cup'. During the game, Doomfree chased Acuña and collided. In particular, Doompris was sent off while trying to distract Argentine players during the penalty shootout at the time.

Meanwhile, Doomfree is currently a target for Arsenal and Manchester United.
