Ralph Rangnick, the Manchester United Manager had a hard time on Sunday against Leeds United as the home fans threw coins at him and his players.
The atmosphere was amazing but this incident left a sour taste in the mouths of the visitors who beat Leeds 4 goals to 2.
“As far as I know, there is some investigation going on from Leeds United,” said United’s interim manager
“I don’t think that anything happened in the end. Anthony Elanga looked well and he was happy about scoring his goal.
“Obviously things like that should not happen and I think even more so this game. The atmosphere was great.
“At times we had to cool down things on the pitch a little bit but this is what I did when I walked onto the pitch (during a late melee). I didn’t want anything to happen – no yellow or red cards. In moments like this, I think it’s important to try and cool things down.”
While the Deputy Chief Constable released a statement saying, “High profile football matches, such as yesterday’s fixture can clearly attract some of the greatest concentrations of people and there were a few incidents both before and during the game.
“We had a large group of 70 people who turned up in Leeds without tickets and they were swiftly identified and issued section 35 dispersal notices before the game and were not allowed to enter the grounds. We also made a handful of arrests for a number of offences including public order, throwing of missiles and breach of banning order.
“Anyone with any information about any incidents or footage from the day, is asked to contact the police via 101 or online.”
