Iyammi Oh! That Crazy Moment The Referee Pulls Out A Gun During Football Match In Brazil - Just Watch Video

A football referee is currently facing disciplinary action after reacting to an assault by a player by getting out a gun and waving it around during a Brazilian amateur match that turned ugly.

 Mr Murta, reportedly a police officer by day, had to be restrained by one his linesmen as he walked towards the offending players with the handgun.

The shocking incident happened at the weekend during a regional league match in Brumadinho near Belo Horizonte, Brazil's sixth largest city and the capital of the state of Minais Gerais.

League president Valdenir de Castro claimed Murta was kicked and slapped after Amantes da Bola subs and the manager invaded the pitch to demand a red card for a rival team player.

Referees' association boss Giuliano Bozzano said the official felt threatened and went to look for the weapon to defend himself. He was due to undergo a psychological assessment later today and could face suspension or a permanent ban. Watch Video below;
