"Sporadic outbreaks of disorder before and after the match were dealt with by the police," confirmed the spokeswoman.

One of the Manchester United supporters' buses was also reported to be damaged.

Keane admits stamping on Southgate

Roy Keane has revealed he stamped on Gareth Southgate in the 1995 FA Cup semi-final because the defender "got in the way".

Southgate, then with Crystal Palace but now at Middlesbrough, is the latest figure in the game to be criticised by Keane.

Keane told The Sun: "He shouldn't be lying on the floor. Defenders shouldn't be on their backsides. I felt that he got in the way."

Asked if settling scores was part of football, Keane said: "Yeah, and there's plenty more to be settled."

Police 'quizzed Keane over pitch tackle'

Roy Keane was quizzed by police over his tackle on a rival player shortly after it happened, it has emerged.

A number of people complained to police after the Manchester United midfielder's challenge on Manchester City's Alf Inge Haaland during a match at Old Trafford in April 2001, Manchester Police said.

The Irishman's tackle was recorded as a crime and both Keane and Haaland were interviewed. It was decided there was not enough evidence to prosecute the United captain.

Police have promised to re-examine the evidence after the footballer's autobiography, in which Keane is reported to admit his tackle on Haaland was deliberate, is published.

Keane: The Autobiography is expected to shed light on the reasons behind the challenge and say he injured the Norwegian to get revenge.

Haaland was the man involved when Keane ruptured his cruciate ligament at Elland Road three years earlier.

Manchester City and Haaland are reported to be considering whether to pursue Keane over the incident, and he may also be charged by the Football Association for bringing the game into disrepute.
