Tensions have boiled over at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea fans appeared to boo Raheem Sterling after he fired a free kick over the crossbar during his side's FA Cup quarter-final against Leicester.But the second half began in nightmare fashion for Chelsea, as Axel Disasi accidentally overhit an attempted backpass into his own goal from 40 yards out.

Chelsea then thought they'd won a penalty after Callum Doyle brought down Nicolas Jackson. The Foxes defender was booked, but that was upgraded to a red card after VAR deemed the offence to have taken place outside of the area. "It is not our decision. Of course he needs to perform well to convince Gareth, but what I tell him is no consolation can make him happy. Nothing. Football is like this."
