The hierarchy at Hill Dickinson Stadium has reacted swiftly to the allegations, promising a full review of the circumstances surrounding the clash. The club has always taken pride in its travelling support but made it clear that the scenes witnessed at the Emirates do not represent the values of the Merseyside institution or its fanbase.
An official Everton statement, as per ESPN, read: “Everton Football Club is aware of an incident involving supporters in the away section at Emirates Stadium and will review the circumstances surrounding it.
“Violent or disorderly behaviour is completely unacceptable and has no place in football. It does not reflect the passionate and loyal support Everton receives both home and away. The club will work with the relevant authorities to establish the facts and take any appropriate action.”
