This is the shocking moment Leeds United and Southampton fans clashed in ugly scenes at Wembley Stadium after the Championship play-off final on Sunday.
Just moments after Southampton secured their return to the Premier League with a 1-0 victory, a mass brawl broke out between the two sets of fans as they spilled out on to Wembley Way.
The riled up supporters were filmed fighting as they exited the iconic stadium and walked towards Wembley Park Tube Station at about 7pm.
It was clear tensions were running high in the aftermath of what is regarded as football's most lucrative fixture. Adam Armstrong's strike secured a tense victory for Southampton and crucially earned them an unparalleled £180million payday.
In the video, a pair of fans are seen coming to blows as others watch on in shock. One of the men tries to throw a punch but does not make a connection as the rival fan ducks out of the way.

The pair then run towards another tussle which has broken out beside them. This time, another fan is dragged to the ground and struck while trapped on the floor.
Another group of lads then come over to intervene by dragging the attacker away and punching him in the stomach.
Other witnesses - including women - attempted to stop the brawls between the fans seen wearing club colours.
One said: 'Stop, stop, stop. Don't do it.'
But moments later, another fan strolls up to a rival supporter and punches him in the back of the head. He then sets his sights on another fan and kicks them to the ground.
As he is falling to the ground, a second attacker kicks him again, leaving him sprawled out on the floor covering his head for protection.
The man filming the 39-second video said: 'This is Wembley for you man?
'F***ing hell mate.'

The mood between the two sets of fans could not have been more different after the game.
Southampton fans were celebrating after returning to the Premier League following their relegation from the top flight last season.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, a Southampton fan, congratulated the Saints after they secured promotion.
Following the victory, Mr Sunak wrote on X: 'We're back' before adding three 'clapping hands' emojis.
Leeds United will now remain in the Championship next season after narrowly missing out on a lucrative promotion.
The ugly brawl came just 24 hours after Manchester United and Manchester City fans clashed in the streets of London ahead of the FA Cup final on Saturday.

Video footage posted on X showed a group clashing near a bus stop in Station Road, Harrow in the lead-up to the Wembley match, which United went on to triumph in 2-1.
One shirtless fan was seen grappling on the floor at a bus stop with traffic at a standstill before more men pile in.
Kicks and punches were thrown - and bottles thrown - during the shocking scenes in the hours ahead of the eagerly-anticipated final.
Chants of 'United, United' can be heard in the background during the scrap which continued right across the road as horrified shoppers watched on.
The Met Police has been approached for comment.
