after the match

When the players left the field, a journalist saw Puskas, who had not played but was standing behind the line, hitting Pinheiro with a bottle in the face. Angered the Brazilians entered the Hungarian dressing room and a fight broke out. Not only among the players but among everyone there. Many people got hurt and the Hungarian minister of Sports even badly when Zeze Moreira hit him in the face with his boots.
No one was reprimanded.
