Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel and Tottenham head coach Antonio Conte attempted to downplay their spats in a contentious 2-2 between at Stamford Bridge. Both managers were booked during the match in a major dugout melee after Pierre-Emile Højbjerg’s goal, with Chelsea incensed that Kai Havertz was not awarded a free-kick in the buildup. Tuchel and Conte were then sent off after full-time for their second clash, with the coaches squaring up to each other amid a niggling handshake. Tuchel sarcastically continued to question to decisions of the referee after the game saying, ‘I cannot coach but the referee can whistle the next game? Good’.
