There were huge celebrations at full-time as Burnley fans stormed the pitch to party alongside their players.

But things have been overshadowed by unsavoury scenes involving Choudhury.

The man on loan from Leicester was fuming and was seen being pushed away by a police officer as he trudged off the pitch.

A Burnley supporter then appeared to goad him and celebrate just in front of him.

By the time Sky Sports cameras returned to the field from filming Parker in the stands, Choudhury had become more incensed.

He then had to be held back from someone by security as a scuffle begun.

The Bangladesh international was pushed down the tunnel by a member of staff as he desperately tried to break free.

It is currently unclear what provoked the incident.
