CORINTHIANS director of football Alessandro Nunes tried to STORM into the VAR ROOM after decisions went against his side on Sunday.
Corinthians travelled to Brazilian rivals Gremio at the weekend in what is always a hotly-contested affair.
But things took an unprecedented turn just 10 minutes into their latest clash.
Corinthians had already been denied a penalty early on when centre-back Bruno Mendez was sent off for a horror challenge.
This sparked utter chaos as Corinthians director Nunes burst inside the stadium and aggressively attempted to find a way into the VAR room.
In Brazil, the VAR officials are situated inside the ground.

Nunes’ attempt was unsuccessful, before he realised he was being filmed by someone close by.
And fans on social media could not believe the scenes they had witnessed in the clip.
One said: “Like a scene backstage at a WWE event!”
While another added: “This is why VAR is at Stockley Park [in England] and not in stadiums 😭.”

A third replied: “South American football is mad 😂.”
And a fourth hilariously responded: “The VAR team should have ambushed him with steel chairs and choke-slammed him through a table.”
After the manic scenes at the start of the game, Nunes’ Corinthians went on to win 1-0 thanks to a 32nd-minute strike from Angel Romero.
The fiery affair ended with 10 men on both sides as Gremio defender Bruno Alves was dismissed late on.
