"They're something that we thought we might not see for quite some considerable time at any part of the tournament, but to start off on that note, it's unedifying, it's pretty shocking," he added.

"People are talking about maybe segregation wasn't strong enough, but do you know what? If people are setting out for trouble, I think they'll cause it regardless and from the pictures that we saw, it was pretty disconcerting."
