Mass brawl erupts in boxing ring after final bell with people chasing each other around in chaotic scenes

Both sides went into the final day of the Clausura campaign knowing they had a chance to add to their trophy cabinet.

And Rosario Central, who are skippered by Manchester United flop Angel Di Maria, were closing in on being crowned champions thanks to notching a 2-0 win over Estudiantes.

Thrilled supporters then rushed onto the Estadio Gigante de Arroyito pitch for wild celebrations when they heard Boca Juniors had gone behind at the iconic La Bombonera.

But Rosario Central pitch invaders were left embarrassed when they discovered it was in fact Defensa y Justicia who had conceded.

West Ham cult hero Enner Valencia broke Rosario Central hearts by grabbing a 96TH MINUTE winner for rivals Boca Juniors.

The Ecuadorian pounced on an error from Defensa y Justicia keeper Matias Borgogno to snatch a 1-0 victory and the title.

The last-gasp drama allowed Boca Juniors to finish one point clear in the race for glory.

And Rosario Central fans who had been in a celebratory mood just seconds earlier were then spotted with their head in their hands.

Those who had remained in the stands were also close to tears when they found out their side had fallen agonisingly short.

Rosario Central stars, who had gathered at the side of the pitch, were also crestfallen when it filtered through that Boca Juniors had bagged all three points.

The mayhem was similar to the pain Man Utd experienced when fierce foes Manchester City stole top spot in 2012.

Sir Alex Ferguson and his side thought they had wrapped up the title thanks to a 1-0 win at Sunderland.

City were still behind against QPR as their final day clash ticked into stoppage time.

But Edin Dzeko’s equaliser was followed by Sergio Aguero’s iconic winner to spark delirium at the Etihad.
