A would-be ordinary match in Honduras ended in a weird fashion, as the referee of the game took out a gun to protect himself from fans. Many fans were angry at the referee for not giving a penalty, calling him many names and questioning his integrity and professionalism.

In a video filmed by a fan, the referee could be seen shooting to the ground to prove that the gun was in fact loaded. The video went viral on social media with many fans divided on the matter. Most fans have berated the referee for bringing a deadly weapon to an event where children may be present, whilst few people were seen defending the referee’s reactions.
