A man has been charged with assaulting police during the A-League Sydney derby at Parramatta earlier this month.
Officers were conducting crowd control at the match between Sydney FC and the Western Sydney Wanderers about 9.45pm (AEDT) on Saturday, January 11, at Parramatta Stadium when a 29-year-old man approached a male officer and allegedly pushed him.
Police said the man then allegedly acted in an intimidating manner toward a female officer, before he was pulled away by two other men.
