Tuchel explains his tense exchange with Unai Emery during Chelsea

During the European Supercup final between Chelsea and Villareal, won by the Blues on penalties, Thomas Tuchel and Unai Emery, the coaches of the two teams, had a tense exchange before joining the locker room at the break. A big explanation of several seconds captured by the English production.

TV cameras caught Tuchel and Emery exchanging words during a tense discussion as they made their way to the tunnel at halftime in Belfast. It all started with a rather rough tackle from Rüdiger on Yeremi Pino. If the German received a yellow card, Tuchel did not really agree with this decision. However, he assures that he has nothing with his Spanish counterpart.

At a press conference after the meeting, Frank Lampard’s successor wished to calm things down on this incident.

” With him [Emery], there is no problem “, The Chelsea manager told BT Sport.

“It was someone from his staff who was a bit too talkative. But yeah ok, that’s it. We thought it was an English tackle, they saw it as a foul. “
