Uniformed police escorted York fans to the stadium. Cleveland Police arrested nine people: eight away fans and one home fan.

One person was arrested outside the stadium. Police removed York fans during the game, about fifteen minutes after it started.

Two people were arrested for being drunk and disorderly. One had a flare, and someone tried to enter while drunk. One person made a homophobic comment.

Four more people were arrested at the train station. The recent game reversed January’s score, with the away team winning 1-0 this time. The clubs did not comment.
