During the third set of a back-and-forth contest on the sand at the Eiffel Tower Stadium, Canada's Melissa Humana-Paredes and Brandie Wilkerson became embroiled in a shouting match with Ana Patricia Silva Ramos of Brazil. All three players stood at the net yelling and pointing at each other after a disagreement while Duda Lisboa, Ramos' team-mate, took a step back.
The referee was forced to come between the two sides and separate them but the verbal jousting continued with a fiery Wilkerson and Ana Patricia locking eyes. Wilkerson eventually walked away and was shown a yellow card. Players at the beach volleyball started arguing so the DJ played Imagine by John Lennon 😅 #Paris2024 #Olympics pic.
