Mudryk’s 92′ minute goal sparked wild scenes at Stamford Bridge with one fan going totally overboard and celebrating in Martin Dùbravka’s face.

Usually you would expect any fan that encroached onto the pitch to get booted from the stadium but it appears this fan was sent happily back to his seat.

Good of the Chelsea steward to help the Chelsea fan who confronted Martin Dubravka back into the stand.
Can’t help but feel that incidents like this, abuse Watkins faced at Bentford and Nufc issues at Sheff Wed would be better served with more and better trained/paid stewards. pic.twitter.com/c7XdKSrnz6— Martin Hardy (@mhardysport) December 19, 2023
Chelsea manager, Mauricio Pochettino, condemned the incident after the game.
He said: ‘We need to be careful. The fans need to be careful with this type of thing because it’s a thing that can put in danger the players. I’m disappointed. I don’t agree with this type of thing that happened here in Stamford Bridge and in other stadiums in England or around the world. It’s always disappointing with this type of thing because it’s dangerous.’
