Fan arrested at FA Cup final over Hillsborough T-shirt

The unnamed man had a photo posted on social media showing him wearing a customised United jersey bearing the number 97 and the words "Not Enough" above them - seeming to reference the number of Liverpool supporters who died at, or afterwards as a result of, the 1989 stadium crush in Sheffield.

While the person's face was not shown in the image circulating online, the Metropolitan Police confirmed they had arrested the individual for a public order offence after working with ground staff. A further photo posted by another account showed the man in handcuffs being put into a police van.
