Chelsea midfielder Moises Caicedo was just another unhappy watcher-on as Nicolas Jackson and Noni Madueke fought to try and take a penalty against Everton on Monday night.
The blues won the game 6-0 and were 4-0 up when they got awarded a penalty. Cole Palmer has been Chelsea’s flawless penalty taker this season so naturally headed to take it. But he was met with resistance from both Jackson, who apparently had a reason for wanting the penalty, and Madueke who wanted to take the penalty instead, both looking to add to their stats this season.
It was an embarrassing incident, one that manager Mauricio Pochettino said he was unhappy about after the game. But it wasn’t just him and the Chelsea fan base either.
Midfielder Caicedo was seen giving Jackson a bit of a talking to after the game, as seen in the image below, and frankly, it is great to see him telling Jackson off. I believe the pair are pretty close in the squad, so it seems Caicedo was disappointed in his pal.
