This Sunday, Seattle Sounders captured the 2025 Leagues Cup title with a 3–0 win over Inter Miami in the final. However, the celebrations were briefly interrupted by a heated altercation between players from both sides just moments after the final whistle.
After a first half in which the hosts took the lead through Osaze De Rosario’s goal in the 26th minute, tensions began to rise after the break. The Herons came out with more energy in the second half and nearly scored the equalizer, but Lionel Messi and Tadeo Allende missed clear chances.
Ultimately, Alexander Roldan and Paul Rothrock sealed the win for Seattle Sounders with late goals. At the final whistle, the Inter Miami players were far from pleased, and emotions boiled over.
Amid the 2025 Leagues Cup champions’ celebrations, chaos erupted on the field with shoving, running, and punches thrown between players and staff from both teams. The scuffle lasted several seconds before those involved were finally separated.
