Hooligans following Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney's beloved Wrexham AFC clashed in a vicious street battle with rival thugs moments before their contest against Oldham Athletic this afternoon.
Shocking footage captured the moment that the hooligans ran towards each other as police officers piled in to try and break up the chaos.
The football fans could be seen violently punching and kicking each other in the middle of the street in Failsworth, Oldham in Greater Manchester.
The footage appears to be taken from a Tesco window, after fans reportedly poured out of The Millgate pub on Ashton Road West, Failsworth.
But the pub declined to comment on the brawl that took place this afternoon.
A staff member told MailOnline: 'We can't disclose any information about it.'
Meanwhile Greater Manchester Police have been contacted by MailOnline for more information regarding the fight.

The area where the brawl took place is more than four miles away from Oldham's home ground, Boundary Park, where supporters would later descend on.
Reports at the scene suggest that fans were seen covered in blood as police vans could be seen arriving at the street brawl.
Social media users urged film star Reynolds to 'have a word' with his Wrexham fans while others warned people to be careful.
