Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri headed straight down the tunnel after his side's 6-0 defeat, ignoring Pep Guardiola's outstretched hand

It was a frustrating day for Maurizio Sarri as Chelsea lost 6-0 at Manchester City - but did he snub opposite number Pep Guardiola at the final whistle?

Having suffered the club's heaviest league defeat in 23 years as they lost 4-0 at Bournemouth last month, this result eclipsed that and was the Stamford Bridge side's worst since April 1991.

Sarri's displeasure at another substantial reverse was clear when referee Mike Dean blew for time up.

But as Guardiola moved from his own technical area to shake hands, the Italian walked straight up the tunnel without reciprocating.

Chelsea's assistant first-team coach Gianfranco Zola said in his post-match press conference that Sarri did not see Guardiola approach him.
