Father who took part in pitch invasion with Man City fans while cradling young daughter is arrested

A man has been arrested after a Manchester City supporter holding his young daughter invaded the pitch to celebrate Yaya Toure's winner at Crystal Palace.

Outcast Toure, who had not played for City in the Premier League all season, made a shock return to action at Selhurst Park on Saturday and scored his second goal in the 83rd minute to win the match for Pep Guardiola's side.

The euphoria got a little too much for a small group of the City support, including a 29-year-old who burst onto the field to celebrate with his heroes while holding his five-year-old child.
