Ecuador fan is filmed in furious row with Qatar supporter after mocking the country's alleged bribery as he is told to 'shut up and sit down' during World Cup opener - before the pair reconcile and insist 'passion can make people upset'

An Ecuador supporter attending the opening match of the Qatar World Cup was involved in a momentary altercation with host nation supporters inside the stadium on Sunday.

Qatar suffered defeat in their first-ever World Cup fixture as Ecuador ran out two-nil victors in front of a packed crowd at the Al Bayt Stadium in Al Khor.

Former Everton striker Enner Valencia scored twice inside the first-half to secure an important group a victory for the South American side in Qatar.

But one Ecuador supporter who had travelled to the match was given a quick telling off by Qatar supporters sat near him as he celebrated his team's success.
