West Ham striker Taty Castellanos was accused of spitting at Millwall goalkeeper Filip Marschall during a heated 2-2 draw at The Den. The incident occurred in the second half of the match, which saw both teams battle fiercely. Marschall made the allegation during the game, though no formal investigation has been announced.
The derby, which took place on Saturday, was marked by intense action and several controversial moments. Six fans were arrested by police during the match, as authorities deployed 400 officers to manage the crowd. The game, the first competitive meeting between the rivals since February 2012, ended in a draw after Konstantinos Mavropanos scored a late goal for West Ham.
Mohamadou Kante was shown a red card in the 89th minute, an unusual moment that saw him applauded by teammates and fans. The match highlighted the growing tensions between the two London clubs, with fans and players reacting strongly to on-field incidents.
The allegations against Castellanos remain unproven, and further details are expected as the situation develops.
