Police were called in to resolve a dispute between reporters following the World Cup third place match between France and England.
A thrilling 6-4 win for England saw them claim the bronze medal at this summer’s tournament.
Three Lions captain Harry Kane was on hand to speak to the media in the mixed zone after full-time at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.
However, in footage posted on X by reporter Franco Panizo, there was a heated confrontation between some members of the media.
One journalist attempted to film what Kane was saying on his phone whilst holding a microphone in his direction.
This irked a reporter next to him, who attempted to block his camera before being given a disapproving shove.
Other reporters were disrupted by his attempt, and a media official arrived in an attempt to ease tensions.
In a second clip, a police officer walks towards where they are stood, with the original reporter continuing to protest.
The officer then calls one of the reporters over and leads them away in an apparent attempt to resolve the situation.

Kane finished the tournament with six goals and did not get on the pitch during the bronze medal match.
The Three Lions captain admitted he was proud of the way his teammates bounced back from disappointment against Argentina.
He told talkSPORT: “Really proud (of his teammates). It’s been a difficult few days, obviously.

“Everyone’s still trying to process what happened the other night, and you have this game in between that, you know, it’s not ideal for both teams, but I think the team with the best mentality won today.
“We spoke before about representing England, and no matter when you do it, it’s a big honour, and you’ve got to wear that shirt with pride.
“Let’s finish the tournament with a medal, at least. It’s the least we deserve for all the hard work, all the dedication we’ve put into it.
“It’s obviously our highest finish in 60 years, our highest finish ever on foreign soil, so there’s a lot to be proud of.
“It doesn’t obviously take away from the fact that there’s a lot of what-ifs in the mind still, a lot of sadness and just things to process, but that’s part of dreaming big. You dream to have the biggest prize.
“When it gets taken away from you, it’s obviously hard to take, but that’s what these next few weeks will be about, to process it all and then obviously go again.”

Kane also defended head coach Thomas Tuchel after the Three Lions boss faced criticism for his decisions in the semi-final defeat to Argentina, even from United States president Donald Trump.
He added: “When you take the England job, there’s always going to be a risk of situations like this.
“He’s been amazing from a player’s point of view. What I can say is he’s been amazing for us. It is our highest finish in a long, long time. A big part of that is down to him.
“Him and the players will be looking at that game the other day and know that we could have done better in that situation.
“He’ll be the first to admit that as well. But that’s part and parcel of being an England manager. You have to take the good with the bad.
“When you dream as big as we dream and you haven’t won it for 60 years and the expectation is high because we’ve been knocking on the door,
“When you fall short there’s going to be questions about your role and your job. That’s just what we live with, living in the arena like we do. He’s experienced enough and big enough to improve on it.
“It’s his first tournament, you’ve got to remember. So not just learning from the players, but also learning from the situation, the travel, the games every three days, the pressure, all those things.
“It’s been his first time in that environment. So he will learn from that and will be better for it for sure.”
