After a dire first 45 minutes, Arsenal's Premier League clash with Nottingham Forest burst into life after the break. In the second half, strikes from Gabriel Jesus and Bukayo Saka gave the Gunners a two-goal cushion, before Taiwo Awoniyi's late finish set up a grand-slam conclusion.Despite this late pressure, Arsenal survived, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/arsenal-player-ratings-nottingham-forest-gabriel-jesus-bukayo-saka/bltcd4250345e7216fb" target="_blank">which should have been cause for celebration</a>. But Oleksandr Zinchenko was in no mood. The Ukrainian immediately stormed over to team-mate Ben White to give him an earful about something.He was soon led away by Declan Rice before the situation escalated and after the game Mikel Arteta insisted that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/love-it-arsenal-mikel-arteta-oleksandr-zinchenko-ben-white-heated-exchange-nottingham-forest/bltfb7fe761ef6e6e5e" target="_blank">he had no problem with the fiery exchange</a>.<script type="application/json" data-placement="fcplayer-semantic">{"type":"fcplayer-semantic","data":{"embedCode":"//cdn.fcp.codes/embed-code-template/embed-code-template.js#SEMANTIC_5704afb8-c10b-4ba5-9cb4-d7fb6098ef90"}}</script>"I love it! I love it because they demand more from each other," he told reporters. "They are not happy the way they conceded that [goal] and they are just trying to resolve it. It was a bit heated but that means it is not enough playing the way we played, the result has to be bigger and the clean sheet has to be there."Not all on-field bust-ups end this amicably, though. Down the years, when emotion runs high, some players have even ended up suffering physical injuries inflicted by their own team-mates.GOAL takes a look at some of the biggest on-field scraps...

Oleksandr Zinchenko vs Ben White: Football's biggest team-mate bust-ups as Arsenal pair clash after Nottingham Forest win

Aston Villa's goalless draw with West Ham back in September 2019 was one of the more interesting 0-0s you are likely to see. Not only did Arthur Masuaku see red midway through the second half, Mings and El Ghazi also came to blows.The defender seemed to take exception to his team-mate's casual defending, but El Ghazi did not back down. When Mings thrusted his face into the Dutchman, he returned the favour - a brave move considering Mike Dean was reffing. However, after a VAR check, neither player was dismissed.The feud did not simmer for long either, with Mings publicly supporting El Ghazi when he was receiving criticism from Villa fans for his underwhelming performances.

Things did not conclude anywhere near as rosily after Bendtner and Adebayor locked horns during Arsenal's humiliating League Cup semi-final second leg defeat to Tottenham in 2008. In an interview with the <a href="https://www.arsenal.com/news/revealed-bendtners-clash-adebayor" target="_blank">club's official website</a> back in 2020, the Dane gave his side of the story."He’s not really my cup of tea," Bendtner said. "I got on with most people in the team and made some really good friends, but me and him? Probably not so much."I remember him being substituted on and I think there was a key moment where I don't think the ball had been passed to him. There was a heated exchange of words where a lot was said between us, and then we squared up to each other. Then he sort of push headbutted me, so he sort of pushed me away while headbutting me on the nose. Then Gallas came in, split us up and took us apart."Did Bendtner try and make amends with his strike partner? Absolutely not. "We tried to talk it through in the dressing room but not so much words... more something else," he added. "Then we got separated and called into the boss’ office the next day. We got fined and that was the end of it. We didn't really have any encounters at all from that moment. We never tried to patch things up."

Even when there's no crowd to raise emotions, footballers can still be tipped over the edge. During the eerie, pandemic-affected 2019-20 season, Son and Lloris had an intense disagreement after the half-time whistle was blown in Tottenham's 1-0 win over Everton.The goalkeeper wasn't happy about the Korean's lack of tracking back, with the pair continuing to exchange robust views in the changing room. As one might expect, Jose Mourinho absolutely adored the drama, with his reaction to the incident being immortalised in the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/how-to-watch-amazons-tottenham-all-or-nothing-documentary-full-details/1kqb2wzbs68v9151l1sv9d47yh" target="_blank">'All or Nothing' documentary</a>.<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="362" src="https://youtube.com/embed/yPZiOnjf3OU" title="YouTube video player" width="644"></iframe>

Watching back Blackburn Rovers' 1995 Champions League clash with Spartak Moscow is a stark reminder of just how much football has changed over the past few decades. The game was played on a decaying, frozen pitch in the Russian capital and with the Premier League side 3-0 down, Le Saux and Batty exploded.After an inadvertent coming together by the touchline, Le Saux aimed a punch in Batty's direction in full view of everyone. Incredibly, neither player was sent off, but the defender did break his hand after failing to untuck his thumb before landing the blow.Le Saux later wrote in his autobiography: "I hit the deck and, as I got up, he came at me very aggressively. He was being threatening and screaming things. His face was contorted with anger, as if he was going to rip my head off,” Le Saux wrote. “Hitting him was more of a pre-emptive strike than anything. If I had not hit him, I felt he was going to hit me."<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="362" src="https://youtube.com/embed/i45UwGeX3d8" title="YouTube video player" width="644"></iframe>

Most on-field bust ups pale in comparison when looking at this one. It's a modern classic, or as Bowyer put it, "a moment of madness"."We were losing 3-0 at the time, we were playing Aston Villa. We were both competing in the same position, we were both similar players, we wanted to get forward and score goals from midfield," he told <a href="https://talksport.com/football/1282722/lee-bowyer-kieron-dyer-fight-newcastle-aston-villa-graeme-souness-alan-shearer/" target="_blank">talkSPORT</a>."I felt at the time during the game that I was in goal scoring positions and, as simple as this is, I felt he could've passed me the ball. I could have maybe scored for the team, made the score different. It happened on a few occasions through the game and I was just saying to him, 'Just pass me the ball, what are you doing?', obviously it was 3-0 and it was right towards the end of the game."Manager Graeme Souness famously pulled the pair of naughty schoolboys in to face the media after the game with Bowyer claiming he was made to take the blame for the incident."They asked me to take the blame, the club asked me to take the blame for it," he added. "Because then Kieron could play in the game against Man United in the semi-final. I said, 'OK, I'll take it'. If it could help Kieron play in the game, then it helps the team."Dyer was less understanding when writing about the incident in his 2018 autobiography. "When the punches were hitting me in the head, I was thinking: 'I cannot believe he is hitting me in front of 52,000 people. What the f*** is he thinking?' I was trying to let him punch himself out. I thought it was just going to be handbags. It's the kind of thing that might happen in training but not in a match. No one in their right mind would do that — but Bow had lost his mind."

Preston North End duo Beckford and Doyle paid a fitting tribute to Dyer and Bowyer a decade after their famous fight by getting into an on-pitch scrap of their own. The disagreement stemmed from the latter's decision to pass to Marnick Vermijl, as opposed to his strike partner, when presented with an opportunity to level the scores late on.Vermijl fired over, which infuriated Beckford and he throw his hand into Doyle's face - a blow which was soon reciprocated by the Irishman. After being separated both were shown a red card, with Preston boss Simon Grayson describing it as an "embarrassment"."I stick up for my players at every club I've been at, I don't like to criticise them in public, I will do in the dressing room. But I can't stick up for either of those players," he said.The pair were both fined, with that money being used to reimburse the tickets of the travelling Preston fans.

Big things were expected of Mane after he arrived in Bavaria at the start of the 2022-23 season. But, not only did the ex-Liverpool man fail to impress on the pitch, he also did not seem to gel with his team-mates - particularly Sane.During Bayern Munich's 3-0 defeat to Manchester City in the Champions League quarter finals, the pair were spotting trading verbal jibes on the pitch and things escalated when they returned to the dressing room at full time. It was widely reported that Mane<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/sadio-mane-allegedly-punched-leroy-sane-in-the-face-bayern-munich-man-city/bltf13a71f7c4fe1e4c" target="_blank"> landed a punch on his team-mate's face</a> during a fracas - and the injury Sane sported in training the next day seemed to confirm these claims.The Senegal international would end up <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/bayern-munich-confirm-sadio-mane-suspended-for-bundesliga-misconduct-after-man-city-/bltfc5441b0c5c6402c" target="_blank">being suspended</a> and reflected on the incident in the summer, confirming he had struck Sane. "Something like that can happen. It happened," he said in an interview with Senegalese television station 2sTV. "We were able to solve this small problem. Sometimes it's good to solve problems, but maybe not in this way. That's behind us now."

Disputes over penalty-taking duty are one of leading causes of on-field spats. And few team-mates have clashed so explosively over spot-kicks as Mitrovic and Kamara. The incident occurred in the Cottagers' eventual 1-0 victory over Huddersfield back in December 2018.After the penalty was awarded, Kamara grabbed the ball and refused a string of requests to hand it to designated spot-kick taker Mitrovic - much to the Serbian's anger. After plenty of back and forth, AK47 finally stepped up... and missed.At that point the scores were level, and although Mitrovic's late winner spared Kamara's blushes, the usually-unflappable Fulham boss Claudio Ranieri was left full of rage at full-time."I said to Aboubakar Kamara to leave the ball to Aleksandar Mitrovic, he is the man who shoots the penalties," he said. "It is unbelievable, he did not respect me, the club, the team and crowd. I spoke with him, it is not right. I wanted to kill him, that is normal when one man takes a ball, only because he scored the last penalty [against Manchester United]. It should be Mitrovic, that is it."

Ribery and Robben enjoyed an incredibly productive relationship on the pitch, but things weren't always sunshine and rainbows. Back in 2012, during a Champions League semi-final meeting with Real Madrid, the legendary Bayern Munich pair had to be separated at half-time after an on-pitch disagreement spilled over into the dressing room.Ribery is even thought to have aimed a punch as his fellow winger, with Bayern bosses giving the pair a stern telling off the following day. Robben does not harbour any ill feeling towards the Frenchman, though, telling Sky Sports that he even believes the altercation strengthened their relationship."We've always got on really well and it exploded between us once, but the incident only made us stronger," <a href="https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/37517618/our-fight-vs-real-madrid-made-us-stronger" target="_blank">he said in 2017</a>. "It was really a shame. We've played together for such a long time and experienced so much together. Actually it doesn't tell the whole story, actually it is really just one incident in eight years."

In the Premier League's formative years, iconic Liverpool stopper Grobbelaar had a violent disagreement with McManaman during a charged Merseyside derby loss to Everton. After Mark Ward put the Toffees in front from a corner the goalkeeper exploded.Incandescent with rage following McManaman's slack defending, Grobbelaar grabbed and pushed the midfielder's face away strongly. The assault didn't spark the Reds into life, though, with Tony Cottee doubling Everton's advantage five minutes from time.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">🔵 | Rewind to 1993 and the <a href="https://twitter.com/premierleague?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@premierleague</a>'s third Merseyside derby for <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/GoalOfTheDay?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#GoalOfTheDay</a>! <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/EFC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#EFC</a> <a href="https://t.co/StzK38MCQd">pic.twitter.com/StzK38MCQd</a>— Everton (@Everton) <a href="https://twitter.com/Everton/status/869806527540060160?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 31, 2017</a></blockquote>
