A 23-year-old man from the Glasgow area has been charged over alleged sectarian singing and offensive behaviour at the game in Aberdeen and he will appear in court at a later date.
Four men aged 20, 26, 27 and 28 from the Aberdeen area were charged with alleged minor public disorder offences outside the stadium linked to football.
Match commander Superintendent George MacDonald said: "The vast majority of fans followed the advice given and conducted themselves appropriately.
"We are aware of damage to a number of seats in the away support area and the toilet area and inquiries are ongoing along with the club in relation to this.
"A flare was thrown on to the trackside towards the end of the fixture near to the South/Merkland Road stands and we would appeal for anyone who has information in relation to this to contact us or the club as soon as possible.
"The policing operation was assisted by the Police Scotland helicopter and other specialist resources including the horses and we appreciate the support of the overwhelming majority of fans and members of the public in allowing the game to pass safely."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
