Players from Mali's winless team fought backstage after a loss to Serbia
Two members of Mali's national women's basketball team were recorded fighting one another following a defeat to Serbia at the FIBA Women's World Cup.
Recovering from their own loss to hosts Australia, Serbia fired back with a 81-68 win which prevented the winless West Africans from being able to qualify for the quarterfinals.
As Serbian top scorer Sasa Cado gave a post-match interview to national media outlet Sport Klub afterwards, one of her answers was interrupted by loud noises coming from another part of the mixed zone.
As a YouTube clip of the incident shows, Cado is heard yelling out as the camera pans to the side to reveal two Mali players involved in a brawl.
One of the players, identified as Salimatou Kourouma, can be seen putting her best efforts into trying to punch Kamite Elisabeth, who puts her arms under her attacker in a boxing-like clinch.
The two women are separated by other players and members of the coaching staff, with the incident adding insult and injury to Mali's forgettable World Cup campaign.
