LONDON (Reuters) - Crowd trouble marred West Ham United's continued resurgence as fans clashed at the London Stadium near the end of their 2-1 League Cup derby victory over Chelsea on Wednesday. For the most part the 45,000 crowd were boisterous but orderly until, with victory virtually secured for West Ham, rival fans began surging towards each other behind the goal guarded by home keeper Darren Randolph. In a statement, the club said: "West Ham unreservedly condemn the behaviour of individuals involved in incidents during this evening's fixture with Chelsea. "Once identified, those found to have acted improperly will be banned from attending any West Ham United fixtures for life." West Ham manager Slaven Bilic became agitated when the post-match news conference quickly turned to events off the pitch.
