A soccer final in the Netherlands was thrown into chaos, quite literally, when a fire broke out behind the goal.
Feyenoord faced NEC Nijmegen in the Dutch Cup final on Sunday, the deciding match for the Dutch major knockout tournament, when fans reportedly set off fireworks at the stadium, setting a huge banner on fire.

Black smoke completely engulfs the fans here… It's hard to even see the center fan, but the fans on both sides seem to be waving for help.
The fire was reported to be relatively small but appeared to be quickly extinguished by firefighters and no injuries were reported. But check out the photos. It definitely could have been a lot worse.

By the way…sports conspiracy theorists may have a field day with this one – because in the 55th minute, the Feyenoord banner went up in flames and the players were evacuated from the field for about 30 minutes.

It is unclear whether a supporter actually started the fire, although some people online claim that a supporter started the fire.Four minutes after the match restarted, Feyenoord scored the only goal of the day, 1-0. won the match. Coincidence? ? ?
In any case, this is Feyenoord's 14th KNVB Dutch Cup win…and I think their fans are pretty excited about it!!!
