Chelsea have sidelined team doctor Eva Carneiro
from match-day duties after she fell foul of manager
Jose Mourinho, according to British media reports on
Tuesday.
Mourinho criticised Carneiro after she ran on the
pitch to treat Eden Hazard in stoppage time of
Chelsea’s 2-2 draw at home to Swansea City on
Saturday, saying she did not “understand the game”.
After receiving support from fans, Carneiro wrote on
her Facebook page: “I would like to thank the general
public for their overwhelming support. Really very
much appreciated.”
The Daily Telegraph and Daily Mail said that while
Carneiro would continue in her role as first-team
doctor, she would no longer attend games or training
sessions or enter the team hotel.
Mourinho felt that Carneiro had been wrong to go to
Hazard’s aid as his side pushed for a winner against
Swansea at Stamford Bridge.
