The "derby" of the Lebanese capital, Beirut, which brought together Wisdom and Al-Riyadi in the 20th round of the Lebanese Basketball League, witnessed the match halted after a major dispute between Al-Riyadi's fans and the security forces, despite their team's lead of "56-52" two seconds before the end of the third quarter of the match. Which was held at the “Saeb Salam” hall in the Al-Manara area.

Al-Jadeed TV website said: "A group of insults and insults preceded the problem, in a charged atmosphere, as one of Al-Riyadi's fans argued with Al-Hikma player Ali Mezher, and as a result, the audience entered the stadium, who followed the fight of the athlete's fans with the security forces violently. ».

In turn, the Lebanese newspaper, An-Nahar, said: “The riot scenes brought back memory to previous years in the Al-Riyadi and Al-Hikma match, after witnessing the public storming the field, throwing explosives and solid objects, attacking the security forces, and chasing the opponent’s players to the entrances to the dressing rooms, in It is surprising and reprehensible, and that what happened does not serve basketball, but rather causes severe damage to its image and endangers it.”
