At least three people have been seriously injured after a fight in the stands at a football match in Brazil.(Video)<\/h1>\n

Brazilian\u00a0riot police fired rubber bullets to stop hundreds of supporters charging each other, before a helicopter landed on the pitch to airlift those hurt to hospital.<\/p>\n

Play was halted for more than an hour in the Brazilian championship match between Atletico Paranaense and relegation-threatened Vasco da Gama.<\/p>\n

Television pictures from the southern city of Joinville showed at least two fans being kicked and stamped on by a mob of rival supporters.<\/p>\n

At one point, a group of around 20 Paranaense fans could be seen kicking a man who was lying on the ground.<\/p>\n

A Paranaense fan was attacked in a similar manner by Vasco supporters, with one stamping on his neck and head, even though he already appeared to be unconscious.<\/p>\n

There were no police inside the stadium at kick-off as a private security firm was being used, and pictures showed rival fans in the half-empty venue were not segregated.<\/p>\n

Before the match resumed, Vasco da Gama goalkeeper Alessandro told Brazilian television: “For a country that is hosting the World Cup next year this is very sad.<\/p>\n

“The stadium isn’t safe. We’re a bit worried.”<\/p>\n

The game was held in the small Arena Joinville because Paranaense’s ground is being modernised to host four matches in the World Cup.<\/p>\n

Reports in Brazil said the three people taken to hospital were in a serious, but not life-threatening condition.<\/p>\n

Paranaense, who were ahead 1-0 at the time, went on to win 5-1, condemning former South American champions Vasco to relegation.<\/p>\n

Paranaense finished third to qualify for next year’s\u00a0Libertadores Cup.<\/p>\n

The incidents completely overshadowed the rest of the final day of the Brazilian championship during which Vasco’s Rio de Janeiro neighbours Fluminense were also relegated.<\/p>\n

They became the first defending champions to be relegated the following season, despite a 2-1 win over Bahia in their final game.<\/p>\n
