Chelsea deny Tuchel told Conceicao to f*** off, shocked by Porto's X-rated dirty tricks - The Telegraph

Speaking to The Telegraph, a Chelsea representative has denied that Thomas Tuchel told Porto manager Sergio Conceicao to 'f*** off' after the final whistle of the game on Tuesday night.

The rumours emerged in the Portuguese press after Conceicao claimed that he 'was insulted' by his counterpart.

The Chelsea spokesperson has branded such claims as 'nonsense' while also pointing out that the Blues' staff was shocked by what they rate as some of the worst behaviour they've experienced from the Portuguese side.

It's claimed that Chelsea players and personnel were called 'filho da puta' which roughly translates as 'son of a b****'. Such behaviour was not limited to the pitch or the dugouts, with Chelsea officials also complaining about Porto representatives in the directors’ box.

The game logically ended in a clash between the players and some of the coaching staff on the pitch, with Edouard Mendy forced to restrain Antonio Rudiger who had been pushed by an opponent.

It is unlikely that UEFA will take any action against Porto, though, as the incidents were not mentioned in the official report.
