Everton are set to face disciplinary following a brawl during their 2-1 Europa League defeat to Lyon at Goodison Park on Thursday night.
Tensions boiled over after Toffees skipper Ashley Williams barged the goalkeeper Anthony Lopes to the ground.
Tempers flared as the incident spilled toward the crowd.
Some of the Toffees fans got involved as well. One man, cradling a young boy was captured on camera striking a Lyon player.
Ronald Koeman though has blamed the referee on starting what could've been a riot:
