Tuchel asks 'when can we pull hair in a football match?' after draw with Spurs

  /  autty

Chelsea fans claimed Cristian Romero's controversial late tussle with Marc Cucurella could have left the Blues defender bald seconds before Tottenham's second equaliser at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

A VAR check resulted in no further action after centre-back Romero appeared to grab hold of Cucurella's abundant hair in an incident shortly before Tottenham scored a last-gasp leveller in the 2-2 draw.

Dismissing Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg's first goal for the visitors and Harry Kane's dramatic closing act, Chelsea manager Tuchel told Sky Sports: 'Since when can we pull hair in a football match? They checked and nothing happened — absolutely ridiculous.'
