Chelsea boss Emma Hayes referred to as out Arsenal counterpart Jonas Eidevall for what she claimed to be “male aggression” following a touchline fracas with Blues midfielder Erin Cuthbert late within the Gunners’ 1-0 extra-time League Cup ultimate victory.
Eidevall was fast to defend his behaviour, saying the disagreement started with a pre-match determination, favoured by Chelsea, to make use of a one-ball system within the ultimate as a substitute of Arsenal’s multi-ball choice.
Cuthbert had gone for a throw-in late in additional time when she circled and walked in direction of Eidevall – presumably reacting to one thing the Arsenal boss had stated – and the pair exchanged phrases on the touchline.
After the ultimate whistle, determined by a Stina Blackstenius strike 116 minutes into what had been a goalless stalemate, Hayes appeared to shove Eidevall as the 2 went in for his or her post-match handshake.
Requested concerning the Cuthbert incident, the Chelsea supervisor advised BBC Sport: “I believe there’s a approach to behave on the aspect of the pitch and, not for the primary time… I’ve been in ladies’s soccer a very long time and I don’t assume we must always tolerate male aggression like we did immediately.
“Fronting up or squaring as much as a participant is one thing that’s unacceptable.
“I’ve by no means been booked in 12 years of my profession however I believe there’s a approach to behave on the touchline. He acquired a yellow card however maybe ought to have been extra.”
Eidevall disagreed with Hayes’ evaluation of his actions, saying at his post-match press convention: “I don’t assume I used to be aggressive. I believe that’s irresponsible to label it as that.
“The argument we had earlier than the sport. Arsenal needed a multi-ball system, Chelsea needed a one-ball system, subsequently it was performed with a one-ball system.
“That incident, the ball is kicked away and Chelsea needs to take a brand new ball for a fast throw-in. I stated, ‘You guys needed to play with one ball, now you have to get that ball’.
“After all, Erin isn’t pleased about that. I didn’t say something extra however I believe that’s how it’s.”
He continued: “I believe there’s a approach to behave within the technical space and I believe there’s a approach to behave after a sport, being a very good winner, a very good loser and you have to be accountable in each these conditions.
“I’m pleased with the best way I conduct myself then others want to have a look at themselves within the mirror and see if they’re pleased with themselves.”
