Brawl
Just eight days after the brawl in Cardiff, reserve teams of Arsenal and Chelsea got involved in a brief yet equally ugly confrontation.
The unseemly mass confrontation took place in the second half when most of the players ran in, pushing and shoving, in the Arsenal penalty area after Mart Poom, the Arsenal goalkeeper, dropped a ball in the six-yard box.
This time there were no managers on the field but there were three cautions - Chelsea's Ben Sahar and Sam Hutchinson and Arsenal's Abumere Ogogo. The match ended 0-0.
