Football: Chelsea suffer setback in their push for Champions League spot
Chelsea players and Burnley players at Stamford Bridge, London, UK where they clashed on April 22, 2019 in Premier League action.
After Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United and Arsenal all lost at the weekend, Chelsea had an opportunity to tighten their grip on the Premier League's top four places. Chelsea's frustration at failing to claim all three points boiled over when referee Kevin Friend sent Sarri off after the Italian coach became embroiled in a scuffle amongst players on the touchline in the dying moments.
Chelsea defender David Luiz accused Burnley of playing "anti-football" by wasting time and employing negative tactics.
