Brawl 'storm in a teacup' insist Jeffrey and Murphy

Linfield manager David Jeffrey and Dungannon Swifts joint-head coach Darren Murphy both play down the post-match brawl in the Premiership match at Stangmore Park.

Dungannon scored an injury-time goal to secure a point against Linfield in a match which was marred by ugly scenes after the final whistle.

Players and spectators were involved in the unsavoury scenes and Terry Fitzpatrick and David Armstrong were later sent-off in the dressing room.

Linfield's Billy Joe Burns has also been sent-off shortly before Josh Cahoon's last-gasp equaliser for the Swifts.
