Chelsea FC dominated Everton on Monday, recording a 6-0 victory over the struggling side, but not without putting on an embarrassing show.
An unprofessional display of selfishness mid-game soured Chelsea’s thumping over the Toffees. The Blues were leading 4-0 in the 61st minute when they were awarded a penalty. Cole Palmer, who had already scored three goals in the game, was preparing to kick the penalty. However, his teammates Noni Madueke and Nicolas Jackson intervened with apparent hopes of taking the kick themselves.
Pochettino: “Palmer is the penalty taker. It won’t happen again, can’t behave like kids again”.
“It’s a shame. I told the players this is the last time I will accept this type of behaviour. This is not a joke”.
“Again, very clear. Cole Palmer is the penalty taker”.
