Viewers were left in disbelief at what the DJ did after an altercation occurred during the women’s beach volleyball final.
On Friday night, the gold medal match in the Olympic women’s beach volleyball was contested between Brazil pair Ana Patricia Silva Ramos and Eduarda Santos Lisboa and Canada’s Melissa Humana-Paredes and Brandie Wilkerson.
In the third set of the match, things got heated as the players exchanged words and gestures at the net.
Eventually, the referee had to step in before things got out of hand.
