Arsenal fans shown fighting each other in new footage of supporter scuffle during pre-season friendly with Manchester United at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey

A new video has emerged showing how tempers flared among Arsenal fans during the side’s pre-season clash with Manchester United in the USA. 

The Gunners were on the receiving end of a 2-0 defeat to Manchester United at the MetLife Stadium, thanks to goals from Bruno Fernandes and Jadon Sancho. 

However, the meeting between the two old enemies was only a friendly in name, with the game having a much more competitive edge. 

That edge seem to spread to the stands, where a fight broke out between Arsenal fans watching on in New Jersey. 

In a new video from a fan who appears to in the same section as the mealy, it shows several scuffles taking place in the stands, but one particular scrap in the stairwell escalates beyond anything else.

The new footage shows the two fans, one sporting a blue Arsenal away kit, having a severe altercation in the stairwell, which ends with one fan with blood running down his face.  

It is unclear what triggered the fight, but after the pair grapple to the ground they are eventually separated and the altercation comes to end. 

The tensions were just as high on the field too. A late challenge from Lisandro Martinez on Bukayo Saka caused tempers to flare in the States, resulting in a mini scuffle until the Argentina star was separated from Gunner captain Martin Odegaard.

United were already 2-0 up but the centre- back was taking no prisoners and went in high on the England forward.

As he almost took out teammate Kobbie Mainoo too, the referee blew for a free-kick, booking Martinez for the challenge, though the 25-year-old was unfazed.

Odegaard was on the scene to confront his opponent, before several other players rushed over to get involved.

The likes of Mason Mount, William Saliba and Luke Shaw all approached the scene, but matters eventually calmed down.

The game saw three yellow cards overall, with Harry Maguire booked for Manchester United and Gabriel Jesus also picking up a yellow in the game.

United will also play Wrexham, Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund while in the States, with the Gunners set to face Barcelona on Thursday morning after already beating an MLS All-Star side.
