Chile fans storm Maracana media centre prior to Spain clash

Chile fans storm Maracana media centre prior to Spain clash

Hundreds of Chile fans have caused havoc at the Maracana stadium after invading the media centre.

Groups of supporters wanting to see their side face World Cup champions Spain charged through barriers outside of the ground and smashed through glass doors at the press entrance to gain access to the stadium.

The fans then began vandalizing equipment and facilities inside of the ground before a handful were apprehended by security.
