🤣 Hasty confetti shower sparks a storm of memes
The anticipation for Internacional versus Flamengo on Wednesday night (20th) was through the roof.
But the start of the match was delayed by 20 minutes due to a considerable amount of confetti that fell onto the Beira-Rio pitch.
Confetti that should only have been released if Colorado qualified for the Libertadores quarterfinals.
And, of course, there were PLENTY of memes about such a "picturesque" episode.
What a thing, huh?
