Goals from Brenden Aaronson and Dan James either side of half-time left the travelling Whites fans elated.

But one supporter in particular got caught up in the celebrations of the second.

As James went over to the away fans to celebrate his goal, one man was seen holding on to a pie as he was squashed in the crowd.

He then ended up falling over the advertising boards.
