There was a bizarre moment at full during Everton’s clash against Chelsea as Nicolas Jackson was involved in a confrontation with several Everton players.
Jackson endured a frustrating game as he and his teammates fired blanks during the 2-0 defeat, a second in a row in the league for The Blues.
The 22-year-old, who was brought to join Chelsea for a fee of £32million, was introduced in the match on Sunday midway through the second half to replace Armando Broja.
But his most significant moment of the game arguably came after the full-time whistle, when he was surrounded by several Everton players, including Nathan Patterson and Amadou Onana.
Clips of the incident revealed Jackson going head-to-head with Patterson, and his manager had to pull the striker away from the emerging melee.
