Guus Hiddink was knocked down the stairs of Chelsea's dugout as players and staff clashed at the end of their draw with Tottenham tonight.
It was a fiery clash at Stamford Bridge as the hosts went 2-0 behind to the title contenders before recovering to grab a 2-2 draw, ending the visitors' hopes of winning the English Premier League.
As everyone celebrates Leicester's unlikely league victory at the expense of Spurs, there's less coverage on the number of incidents in last night's game. One of those was a touchline melee as both teams made their way to the tunnel at the full-time whistle.
Several players and staff members of both sides were involved, and fan footage of the incident shows Hiddink being knocked to the ground as he tried to usher an angry Cesc Fabregas away:

Fortunately the Dutch manager wasn't hurt in the incident, but it did look pretty sore and the clash could see several people punished retrospectively for their conduct.

Spurs set a new Premier League record by having nine players booked and it was a surprise to see no red cards during the match, especially for Eric Dier who had several yellow card offences ignored.
Mauricio Pochettino's side seemed to lose their heads during the game and there was several incidents through the game including Moussa Dembele gouging Diego Costa's eyes and Cesc Fabregas seemingly having his hand stamped on by Erik Lamela.
With Dele Alli already suspended for the last two games of the season, following his punch at Claudio Yacob in the previous match against West Brom, Tottenham could be thin on the ground should Lamela, Dembele and Rose, for the Hiddink incident, find themselves involved in FA investigations.
