Donny Malen in Aston Villa-Young Boys was hit by a plastic beer mug (according to Sky) during the celebration for his 1-0 goal.
As seen in the images, the Dutch forward sustained a small head injury. Malen then scored the second goal, further infuriating the Swiss fans.
After the 2-0, the game did not resume immediately: the supporters of Young Boys started a scuffle with the security officers, who removed some fans from the away section.
