Maurizio Sarri Says He 'Didn't See' Pep Guardiola During Handshake Snub

Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri says he didn't see Manchester City counterpart Pep Guardiola when he appeared to snub the Catalan's handshake following his side's 6-0 humiliation at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.

Sarri made a beeline for the tunnel immediately after the final whistle, with the Italian seemingly inconsolable after Chelsea's biggest Premier League defeat.

Per TalkSport's Joe Coleman, he said: "I didn't see at that moment. But of course as usually I will go to say hello to him later, as usual. It was by chance because I wanted to go to the dressing room at that moment, and I didn't see him.
