Burnley`s celebration of securing promotion to the Premier League was marred by unpleasant events involving Sheffield United player Hamza Choudhury.
Burnley defeated the Blades 2-1 at Turf Moor, a victory that not only confirmed their return to the top flight but also secured promotion for Leeds United.
Following the final whistle, widespread celebrations saw Burnley fans rushing onto the pitch to celebrate alongside their players.
However, the joyous scenes were overshadowed by a disturbance involving Choudhury.
The midfielder, on loan from Leicester, appeared visibly upset and was initially seen being steered away by a police officer as he walked off the field.
Subsequently, a Burnley supporter seemed to deliberately provoke the player by celebrating directly in front of him.
When cameras returned to the pitch, Choudhury`s reaction seemed to have intensified.
He was then restrained by security as a scuffle ensued.
The player was escorted down the tunnel by a staff member while attempting to break free.
The exact reason for the confrontation remains unclear.
This is not the first recent instance of a post-match incident involving Sheffield United.
Their manager, Chris Wilder, was reportedly at the center of a brawl after a recent defeat to Plymouth Argyle.
Wilder apparently took issue with the way Plymouth player Mustapha Bundu celebrated in front of the Sheffield United fans.
An exchange of words escalated into pushing and shoving in the tunnel involving several players and Wilder.
