Crystal Palace manager, Patrick Vieira angrily kicked an Everton fan to the ground after Goodison Park pitch was invaded following Everton's win against the Eagles. Everton came from 2-0 down 👇 to win the match 3-2.
Thousands of Everton supporters flooded in from the stands after Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored a late winner to keep the Toffees in the Premier League.
But in yet more unsavoury scenes after fans invaded the pitch, cameras caught the Palace boss involved in a fracas.
As he tried to leave the pitch, Vieira could be seen clashing with a fan.
The fan appeared to be swearing in the Frenchman's face as he held up his phone in his face.
Vieira then turns, grabs the man and kicks him to the floor.
Another man then comes along and shoves Vieira, with the Arsenal legend appearing to square up to him.
However, before it can go any further, other supporters separate them and he walks away down the tunnel.
When asked about the incident, Vieira said: "I do not have anything to say about that”.
Everton boss Frank Lampard added: "I feel for Patrick and I didn't get him (to shake hands) at the end because of the reaction.
"He ran across the pitch 80 yards in front of our fans but there's no issue.
"Just pure elation from our fans at staying in the league."
The shock incident comes just 48 hours after Sheffield United striker Billy Sharp was attacked by a Nottingham Forest fan at the City Ground.
