Fight broke out during Monday’s game between the U.S. U-19 Men’s National Team and Bahrain. While Bahrain was up 3-1 in stoppage time, US player Pierre da Silva (wearing No. 10) was tripped by a Bahrain player, followed by Bahrain player that kicked the ball to his head. After seeing the kick, U.S. defender John Nelson chased the player who kicked the ball to da Silva's head, and it developed into a full blown brawl with players from both teams going at each while referees, coaches and trainers attempted to break it up.
The Americans was eliminated from the COTIF tourney with the 3-1 loss to Bahrain.
