5 red cards in a Brazil "peace" match

The mind boggles at what the tally of red cards might have been if it hadn't been a peace match...!Three players and both coaches were sent off on Sunday in a Brazilian derby which had been preceded by a campaign to promote peace between the supporters of Juventude and Caxias.
