A viral video of yesterday evening’s burst out between Chelsea stars David Luiz and Gonzalo Higuain appears to show Luiz elbowing his teammate.
The burst out started when Higuain tries to get the ball first time from Lui but fails.
He then goes back in again, and the Brazilian defender looks as though he thrusts an elbow at his team-mate.
Understandably Higuain reacts and has words with Luiz. Then just seconds later Sarri was seen blowing his top and storming off.
However, a spokesperson for Chelsea later revealed that Sarri’s frustration was due to the team not being able to practice set-pieces because of the presence of the media and cameramen.
Not what Chelsea fans want to see on the eve of the biggest game of their season…
