The A-League Melbourne derby has been abandoned after a player and the referee were injured by a spectator during a pitch invasion.
Fans ran on to the pitch in the 22nd minute of the match between between Melbourne City and Melbourne Victory.
Referee Alex King was trying to shield City goalkeeper Tom Glover when both suffered cuts to their faces after being hit by a metal bucket.
Glover had several stitches before being taken to hospital for scans.
A City statement said Glover, 24, went for "further follow up checks" after being assessed by the club doctor.
A TV cameraman was also injured by a flare.
