The Netherlands has a notorious reputation for being involved in some of the most disciplined matches at the World Cup. A notable instance of this occurred during the quarter-final of the 2022 event in Qatar, where the Netherlands faced Argentina. Although Argentina emerged victorious in the penalty shootout following a 2-2 draw, it was the aggressive behavior of both teams that became the main highlight. An astonishing 18 yellow cards were issued during the match, setting a new record. The Netherlands received eight yellow cards, with Denzel Dumfries earning a red card after his second yellow. Similarly, Argentine players accumulated eight yellow cards, with their manager Lionel Scaloni and assistant Walter Samuel also receiving yellow cards, bringing their total to ten. This match underscored the intense and often contentious nature of World Cup encounters.

Here is the story of the battle of Lusail.

Yes, this is the most violent recent game. How about, though, the Battle of Santiago, Chile 2 - Italy 0? June 1962 World Cup. Punches were thrown, noses were broken, spitting occurred. The police had to remove a player that was ejected from the game. The red and yellow cards were not yet in use at that time (they were introduced at the 1970 World Cup).
