PSV fans scrapped with Galatasaray supporters last night as the Dutch outfit smashed their rivals 5-1.
The two pairs of fans could be seen brawling as the away support celebrated their goal - which turned out to be a consolation strike - during the Champions League qualifier.
Both Celtic and St Johnstone will have been keeping a close eye on the fixture with some big future permutations pertaining to both clubs.

Should Celts see of Midtjylland they will face the winner of this tie while Saints will take on the defeated side in their Europa League qualifier.
But both will undoubtedly want to avoid any repeat of last night's ugly violence from inside the Philips Stadion.
Footage which emerged on social media showed punches being thrown - allegedly by Eindhoven fans - as their opponents enjoyed their only goal of the game.
At one point a man can be seen shielding a young girl during the melee as the pair flee from the attacks. Stewards can also be seen attempting to calm things down and it is believed that Galatasaray fans had made their way into a home stand to celebrate.
