Prior to the match, Wembley managers Wright and Chloe Kelly decided to use their wildcard.
They enlisted the help of Watford icon Troy Deeney – but it did not go to plan.
Just minutes into his appearance, Deeney lost his temper and clattered into two opposition players off the ball.
He first crashed into the back of Karim Kamhouri before barging into Tareiq Holmes-Dennis, sparking a melee on the pitch.
Deeney was eventually shown a red card by referee Mark Clattenburg.
But tensions also spilled over following the match.
With FC RTW having won 4-3, Wright appeared to clash with former United academy player Harrop – who scored against Crystal Palace in his one and only first-team appearance in 2016/17.
The RTW forward could be heard saying to Wright: “I’m a grown man, don’t speak to me like that.”

Deeney eventually stepped in to break things up.
Fans took to X to react, with one person writing: “Imagine being rattled in the BALLER LEAGUE.”
Another commented: “Team Wrighty all the way.”
While another, referring to Harrop, said: “That man scored a goal on debut for Man United… and now he is doing this?”
Wembley Rangers now sit ninth in the 12-team Baller League table, with RTW just above in eighth.
