United players in post-match bust-up

Chelsea's groundstaff were involved in a post-match bust-up with Manchester United players during a warm-down session at Stamford Bridge.

United's Patrice Evra, Paul Scholes, John O'Shea, Gerard Pique and Gary Neville were taking part in the warm-down on the pitch when they were asked to move by Chelsea groundstaff.

The row erupted when the players refused to come off the pitch and an altercation broke out between Chelsea stewards, groundstaff and the United players.

Chelsea had earlier beaten Manchester United 2-1 to go level on points at the top of the Barclays Premier table.
