Arsenal beat Napoli 2-0 in their Champions League game
Napoli fans have been accused of an attack on a north London restaurant which left one man needing hospital treatment.
Witnesses reported seeing a group of around 30 supporters in Napoli colours tear through the Piebury Corner restaurant, close to Arsenal's Emirates Stadium, in the hours before the teams met in the Champions League.
Windows were smashed and chairs broken, and a man in his 40s was taken to hospital with head injuries which were found not to be serious.
Emily Gould, who was working in the restaurant when the attack happened, told Sky Sports News: "Someone was head-butted, and then stools were thrown towards me so I ran.
"I grabbed the till, ran upstairs, and just checked my friends and colleagues were okay, but we did hear smashes.
"Our window's been smashed, our stools and our tables have been broken. Not only that, they frightened the staff."
