Antonio Conte has explained that he stormed down the tunnel after his side’s last-minute winner at Bournemouth in fear that the goal could be ruled out by VAR.
The Italian boss was sent-off after the final whistle after his side’s last-minute goal against Sporting CP in Wednesday night’s Champions League clash in North London. He has now insisted that he needed to go somewhere calmer to digest the winner at Bournemouth, in case it was once again chalked off.
