Nicolas Jackson has issued an apology to “the club, the staff, my team-mates and all the fans” after being sent off during Chelsea’s loss to Flamengo in the Club World Cup.
Jackson, who was sent off against Newcastle in their third-last Premier League match, was brought on after after the hour mark with the scores level. Flamengo scored a second just one minute later and, three minutes after that Jackson raked his studs down the shin of Lucas Ayrton and was immediately dismissed.
