Moment fight breaks out behind World Cup reporter as broadcast suspended

A World Cup 2026 broadcast was suddenly suspended when a fight broke out behind a reporter.

A Fox Sports Mexico journalist was reporting live from outside the Azteca Stadium on Thursday (11 June) following Mexico’s win over South Africa, when chaos erupted.

Two men can be seen trading blows just metres behind him as he continues his post-match analysis.

As the reporter turned round to catch a glimpse of the fight, the live broadcast was cut off, shocking the in-studio presenters.

The reporter later resumed his report and confirmed he was unharmed, whilst explaining that the fight broke out over transport prices to and from the arena.
