Former Nottingham Forest defender caught up in chaos as goalkeeper hit in face with metal bin

Former Nottingham Forest defender Thomas Lam had to clear the pitch after violent scenes in the Melbourne derby in Australia's A-League.

The match was abandoned in the first half when Melbourne City goalkeeper, Lam's teammate, Tom Glover was hit in the head by a metal bin and was left bleeding as fans stormed the pitch.

Both teams were ushered off amid the chaos with City leading 1-0 as the referee, who was covered by powder in the bin, decided to abandon the game on the grounds of player safety being at risk.
