One of the possibilities (but then, the "apaziguar" is a bit in the "active" side)
I almost was beaten up when I was trying to break a fight between two friends of mine.
========================================
I was just trying to keep the peace, when a fight between two friends broke out and I almost got beaten up (by them, or by one of them, by accident, unintentionally, etc).
(aqui "apaziguar" pode ser de uma forma reativa -como o exemplo acima- ou de forma mais passiva/pacífica (quase apanhei sem ter feito nada...)

Sugestão:
Os dois jogadores quase tiveram uma briga antes do técnico apaziguar (as coisas entre eles).
We tried to smooth things over, but they all began to fight.
Nós tentamos apaziguar, mas todos começaram a brigar.
Bons estudos.

A very good one, Donay! You are our Brazilian maestro in the EE!
So, piggy-backing on Donay´s definition, I elaborated this sentence:
I was almost beaten up when what I was just trying to do was to smooth things between two friends of mine!
Indeed, it was a good thing, the notion of "usually talking to the people involved", I was strugling to find a word or expression to convey that idea. Well done! It hit the nail on the head.

Olá pessoal,
Aprendi uma boa forma, que é: "break up a fight" = apartar uma briga.

Valeu.
