With the Queretaro incident still fresh in the memory, theLiga MX and the Mexican authorities continue to keep an eye on the supportersâ behavior in games to prevent any new case of fan violence.
The shameful episodeduringthe gamebetween Queretaro and Atlas at Estadio Corregidora is something that must not happen again and anything thatcomes close to that horrific moment is also unacceptable.
Thatâs why on Sunday the police acted quickly against the threat of a new riot during the Clasico Tapatio between Chivas and Atlas. According to Diario OlĂ©, theGuadalajara police informed that six men were arrested for fightsinside the stadium.

Two of the arrested men have also reportedly lit flares,which is prohibited at stadiums. Additionally, nine people were ejected from the Estadio Jalisco for throwing glasses and for shouts that incited violence.
Commissary Juan Pablo Hernandez told El Informador that the arrested and ejected fans could not return to stadiums for the rest of the season, while all of their Fan IDs will register this incident.
The conflict didnât escalate as much as the Queretaro one did but itâs a shame that some continue to be violent after everything that happened. The derby ended in a 1-1 draw and things were heated on the pitch as well as it ended with three red cards and a controversial celebration from Julian Quiñones towards the Chivas supporters.
