Watch: Crystal Palace Manager Patrick Vieira Involved In Altercation With Fan After Defeat To Everton
Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira was involved in an altercation with a football fan after his team was defeated by Everton in a thrilling clash at Goodison Park on Friday, which helped The Toffees avoid relegation. Trailing 0-2, Everton staged a second-half comeback to seal a 3-2 win against Crystal Palace. There was a pitch invasion by fans after the final whistle. Television footage showed the ugly scenes at full-time as Vieira was taunted by an opposition supporter. The supporter looked to be goading the Frenchman and seemed to be holding up a phone while extending his arms very close to Vieira's face. Vieira then tried to grab the phone before kicking him with his right foot and the fan fell to the ground. The former Arsenal man was then surrounded by some fans as he tried to walk away.
