A large steward presence was required as a standoff is said to have ensued, before police in riot gear arrived on the scene amid concerns that the situation could escalate.
Goals from Cheikhou Kouyate and Edimilson Fernandes secured West Ham's place in the quarter-finals of the competition, but the crowd unrest is expected to dominate the headlines surrounding the match.
