An Everton fan who punched two police officers during a Premier League game has been banned from attending football matches for three years.
Shane Bennett attacked them while they were arresting another fan who was abusing Newcastle United players and staff, said Merseyside Police.
The 18-year-old was convicted at a previous South Sefton Magistrates' Court hearing of assaulting emergency workers at Goodison Park on 17 March.
He was ordered to do community service.
Police said a man approached the away team pitch exit and threatened Newcastle's players, coaches and stewards.
While officers detained him, Bennett, of Grasmere Street in Anfield, approached and punched two officers, said a force spokesman.
