OSG Prem: Chelsea's Hazard Kicks Ball Boy

((HT: Capital One Cup/youtube))

Chelsea was trailing Swansea City 2-0 on aggregate in the Capital One Cup action this afternoon/tonight and Eden Hazard, in a moment of desperation, decided to do the following to a ball boy in Wales...


Classy move... and it got him an instant red card from the official...

Manager Rafa Benitez was livid, but Hazard will be the one getting a major fine and suspension for this one when it's all done...

More when we know more...

THURSDAY UPDATE:
Apparently, Hazard won't face any criminal charges for the incident. But the Football Association is reviewing the whole thing...

From SkySports:

Hazard told Chelsea TV: "The boy put his whole body onto the ball and I was just trying to kick the ball and I think I kicked the ball and not the boy. I apologise.

"The ballboy came in the changing room and we had a quick chat and I apologised and the boy apologised as well, and it is over. Sorry."
