Bottles thrown during Melbourne Victory vs Melbourne City W-League match
Melbourne City’s remarkable W-League turnaround against Melbourne Victory has been overshadowed by a group of Victory fans hurling bottles and abuse at City and Matildas goalkeeper Teagan Micah.
Play had to be stopped for several minutes late in Sunday’s game at Epping Stadium as referee Danielle Anderson, City captain Emma Checker and Victory skipper Angela Beard attempted to calm the crowd down.
It took the gloss off City’s thrilling 3-2 win, which was a remarkable turnaround from their 6-0 loss to the same team a week earlier.
“The behaviour of the fans at the match was not acceptable,” Micah said on Twitter after the match.
