Awful scenes greeted the aftermath of Arsenal’s Premier League win over London rivals Tottenham at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, MySportDab reports.
The rival fans were seen in footage, engaging each other in a violent brawl after the match, outside the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
They threw punches and exchanged blows in the bust-up before the riot police intervened.
Meanwhile, the intervention of the riot police initially stoked the flames of the conflict as some Tottenham fans diverted attention from the away fans to engage and confront the riot police in a seething duel.
However, the heavily equipped security team were able to overpower them and subsequently restore calm.
It’s yet unclear what led to the fallout but Tiktok user @teltalks, who shared footage of the incident, claimed Tottenham fans started the brawl when they confronted some Arsenal fans at the home end, trying to force them to evacuate.
Arsenal fans resisted them, leading to the full-blown fallout, and then the intervention of the riot police.

MySportDab understands the two rival fans share no love lust when it comes to the North London Derby.
Last season, a Tottenham Hotspur fan, who has now been arraigned, attacked Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale on the pitch when the two teams locked horns in the London Derby.
Away from the chaotic incident, it was another perfect result for the Gunners, who are battling to win their first Premier League title after 20 years.
The Gunners survived a late comeback push by Tottenham Hotspur and secured a 3-2 victory to maintain their grip on top of the Premier League table.
Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka’s goals, including Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s own goal fired the Gunners into a 3-0 lead at the break.
Cristian Romero and Song Heung-Min’s goal set the Lilywhites en route for a possible comeback but the Gunners held on to run out with crucial three points.
