Everton’s win sealed the survival of the Premier League with a game to go and sparked a mass invasion after the final whistle.

As Vieira approached the tunnel, he was goaded by a Toffees fan.

In video recordings that have since surfaced, the supporter can be heard insulting the Frenchman.

He seems to be saying, “Suck that you Muppet, get in!

“”Fuck off!”

The fan was also seen pointing his middle finger at the Palace boss.

Vieira, 45, subsequently turned and grabbed the Everton fan before seemingly kicking him to the ground.

After the game he said: “I have nothing to say about that.”

Speaking to Frank Lampard about the incident: “I feel for Patrick. I didn’t understand him in the end. I would have said, ‘Come in with us’ – although he might not have wanted to.”

“Of course he ran 80 meters across the pitch and it’s not easy.”

The incident was just the latest in an ugly string of scenes this week involving pitch invasions.

Swindon ace Mandela Egbo berated “dirty fans” as his face was scratched after his side lost the play-off semi-final to Port Vale.

Earlier this week, Billy Sharp received a shocking headbutt and required stitches after Sheffield United’s penalty shootout loss to Nottingham Forest.

One man has since been charged with assault.

During the same pitch invasion, Blades forward Oli McBurnie is accused of stepping on an opposition supporter.
