The Chelsea boss did not hide his anger after Liam Dileep was shown a red card in the League Cup match.

Despite the win over Wolves, the sending-off incident soured the coach’s mood. Delap, who has just returned from injury, managed to pick up two yellow cards in the space of seven minutes, leaving his team down to ten men at the crucial moment.
Maresca called this act stupid and shameful. The Italian specialist publicly accused the player of selfishness, saying that he tried to calm him down after the first warning.
“I told him four or five times to calm down. But Liam is a player who, when he goes out on the field, probably plays for himself. It’s hard for him to realize what’s going on and listen to those around him,” said Maresca.
