UAE authorities have ordered the arrest of football fans who brawled during a match between Al Ain and Al Wahda on Saturday.
Videos circulating on social media showed a number of fans jumping from the stands and fighting during the Adnoc Pro League top of the table clash.
Al Ain won the game 1-0 at Al Nahyan Stadium in Abu Dhabi city.
Abu Dhabi Public Prosecution said they will respond firmly to anyone who breaks the law.
They urged football fans to act responsibly and avoid acts that may endanger the lives and safety of others.
“UAE laws provide protection for all individuals and set strict penalties for those violating laws and regulations in order to ensure the security and safety of all members of the public,” prosecutors said.
Abu Dhabi Police also called on the public to act responsibly.
“We urge football fans to avoid intolerance on and off the field and on social media,” the force said.
Police also called on those attending games to co-operate with officers who are regulating traffic on the roads and entrances leading to the stadium.

Mohammed bin Zayed Majlis
Who is Mohammed Al Halbousi?
The new speaker of Iraq’s parliament Mohammed Al Halbousi is the youngest person ever to serve in the role.
The 37-year-old was born in Al Garmah in Anbar and studied civil engineering in Baghdad before going into business. His development company Al Hadeed undertook reconstruction contracts rebuilding parts of Fallujah’s infrastructure.
He entered parliament in 2014 and served as a member of the human rights and finance committees until 2017. In August last year he was appointed governor of Anbar, a role in which he has struggled to secure funding to provide services in the war-damaged province and to secure the withdrawal of Shia militias. He relinquished the post when he was sworn in as a member of parliament on September 3.
He is a member of the Al Hal Sunni-based political party and the Sunni-led Coalition of Iraqi Forces, which is Iraq’s largest Sunni alliance with 37 seats from the May 12 election.
He maintains good relations with former Prime Minister Nouri Al Maliki’s State of Law Coaliton, Hadi Al Amiri’s Badr Organisation and Iranian officials.
