BREAKING: Chelsea's clash with PSG descends into chaos as ballboy push causes mass brawl

1 hour ago 3

Tempers boiled over during Chelsea's clash with Paris Saint-Germain as the sides collided after Pedro Neto sent a ballboy flying with a push as he went to retrieve the ball.

Chaos ensued as players surrounded the area where the ballboy was sent tumbling backwards during stoppage time. Neto eventually apologised for his actions as the youngster was checked over by medical staff.

PSG's stars then attempted to hold off Reece James and Neto, as the likes of Marquinhos and Enzo Fernandez exchanged some pushing and shoving. Flurries of players seemed to enjoy heated words before referee Alejandro Hernández calmed the situation and explained what would happen next to the teams' captains.

The Portuguese winger escaped punishment for his nudge, as the ballboy attempted to evade his grasp with the ball. VAR did check the action but decided against a red card.
