Liverpool and Manchester City fans were embroiled in violent clashes outside Wembley Stadium ahead of their FA Cup semi-final on Saturday afternoon.
Brawling supporters were filmed throwing punches on Wembley Way, forcing police to intervene and attempt to break them up in shocking footage which was shared on social media. The ugly scenes came as tensions run high between the two clubs, who are locking horns in a fiercely-competitive Premier League title race.
City and the Reds have shared the last four top-flight titles and they are widely regarded as the two best teams in the world. They were in league action six days before their semi-final and drew 2-2 after a riveting encounter at the Etihad which saw the Sky Blues maintain their slender one-point lead the top of the table.
