Chelsea clash with Shamrock Rovers temporarily stopped as Christopher Nkunku pelted with TOILET ROLL
CHRISTOPHER NKUNKU was pelted with TOILET ROLL in Chelsea’s clash against Shamrock Rovers.
The Blues hosted the travelling Irish side in the Europa Conference League group stage.
But the game was temporarily halted as Nkunku was unable to take a corner amid the onslaught of loo roll being chucked his way.
The referee stopped the game as Nkunku and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall did their best to clean up the corner area.
The game did resume shortly afterwards.
Chelsea are unbeaten in their five Conference League matches and so too are Rovers – with Blues boss Enzo Maresca scouting them.
Maresca said: “We try to approach every game in the same way: to do our best and win the game.
“Today in football it is difficult to find a team that has no strengths.
“All the teams have something good, and some things we can try to work on and win the game.
“I watched four or five [Shamrock] games and they are a good team.

“They try to defend as a block all together, and play face to face with the other team.
“I’m quite convinced all the games are difficult. It depends on us, the way we take that game, and it can become easier or more difficult, but for sure it will be another game we try to win.”
