Disorder after Sunderland beat Newcastle United - BBC Sport

Four police officers were injured as trouble broke out in Newcastle following Sunderland's 3-0 win over Newcastle United at St James' Park.

Bottles were thrown and bins set on fire as mounted officers tried to move crowds back to allow visiting fans to be escorted to Metro and rail services.

A British Transport Police spokesman said three of its officers were injured while Northumbria Police said one of its officers was also hurt.
