British police said Friday they were “investigating an altercation” after Everton’s match with Crystal Palace, in which Palace manager Patrick Vieira appeared to kick out at a fan.
The former France international refused to comment on Thursday, after the home side came back from 2-0 down to win 3-2 and secure their Premier League status.
Vieira was surrounded by jubilant Everton fans celebrating the Merseyside club’s last-gasp winner.
Merseyside Police said in a short statement that they had begun a probe into the events at Goodison Park.
