Daily Mail | December 3, 2016

Chelsea's important win at Manchester City finished on a controversial note after a mass bust-up that resulted in Sergio Aguero and Fernandinho being sent off.

Antonio Conte's men had just scored their third goal through Eden Hazard to seal victory when a dreadful, knee-high tackle by Aguero on David Luiz led to tempers boiling over.

As Luiz clutched his leg on the turf, his team-mate Nathaniel Chalobah came over to remonstrate with Aguero, sparking a brawl that involved many players from both sides.
