Fans battled outside the ground immediately following Ecuadorean side Barcelona's 1-0 win, forcing police to lock the gates to stop more fans getting involved, according to local media.
Video footage on Globo's sports channel showed fans outside the ground running from the fighting as police fired percussion grenades to disperse the crowds.
Globo also said fans inside the ground tried to get into the Santos dressing room to remonstrate with the side after the surprise quarter-final defeat to a Barcelona team that had two players sent off.
Barcelona won the two-legged tie 2-1 after a 1-1 draw in Guayaquil last week and face another Brazilian side Gremio in the semi-finals next month.
