Chelsea star Levi Colwill squared up to his Tottenham rivals as the London derby boiled over. The defender “completely snapped” in a match full of incidents at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.<\/p>\n

The game already had it all before Colwill saw the red mist. Deep into first-half stoppage time, the Blues academy graduate lost it with Spurs midfielder Pape Sarr.<\/p>\n

Nicolas Jackson had just been booked and Sarr attempted to take the ball out of Colwill’s hands. But Colwill was not happy with Sarr and fury took over.<\/p>\n

There was a melee of players, with Emerson Royal and Yves Bissouma also getting involved. Conor Gallagher attempted to calm the situation for his Chelsea team-mate.<\/p>\n

Gary Neville was on co-commentary duty for Sky Sports. He said of the incident: “Well Colwill’s gone, I can’t believe the Tottenham players are actually pushing him away from Sarr. They should have let him go for him and get himself sent off.<\/p>\n

“Colwill’s completely snapped, he’s gone. Look at him. What is Chelsea doing? Colwill, he’s just gone.<\/p>\n

“I think Emerson Royal has saved Colwill by pushing him away. There was a little foul, not too much in it. There was a little something where Sarr pushes him away and then they all go for it. Emerson Royal saves Colwill because he’s just gone.”<\/p>\n

Both Colwill and Sarr were booked for the incident in a thrilling first half. Tottenham had taken an early lead when Dejan Kulusevski’s deflected effort beat a helpless Robert Sanchez in goal.<\/p>\n
