A Vancouver Whitecaps fan threw popcorn at Sporting Kansas City’s Dom Dwyer on Wednesday.

The fan, who was talking with Dwyer from the stands before the match, became displeased with the Sporting KC player and proceeded to throw the snack at him in an expression of frustration. Security immediately got involved, scuffling with the fan in an effort to remove him from the premises. 

Dwyer responded to the incident with a series of tweets after the game.

The game ended in a 1–1 tie.
