The incident happened late in the game
A coin was thrown at Manchester United players during their 3-1 victory over Arsenal in the FA Cup.
With about five minutes to go in the game, and United winning comfortably, a fracas broke out on the touchline involving several players. Marcus Rashford and Sead Kolasinac went head to head, and both received a yellow card.
Jesse Lingard was seen shouting at the nearby Arsenal fans, and he had to be pulled away by his teammates.
Replays on BBC’s live coverage showed a coin being thrown onto the pitch, which was picked up by Ashley Young.
Alexis Sanchez opened the scoring in the first half on his return the Emirates. A lovely through ball from Romelu Lukaku sliced open the Arsenal defence, and the Chilean was able to slot home from just outside the six-yard box.

Jesse Lingard doubled their lead just two minutes later, after a Manchester United counterattack.
Arsenal made things nervous for the visitors however when Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang pulled one back for Unai Emery’s side before half time, following great work from Aaron Ramsey.
It was not enough for the Londoners however, as Anthony Martial scored a third for United late on and secured the win.
The result extended Manchester United’s unbeaten run to eight games following Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s appointment.
