Piers Morgan calls Thomas Tuchel 'embarrassing' for complaining about referee laughing with Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti, and teases 'they were probably laughing at how badly Chelsea choked'

Piers Morgan has labelled Thomas Tuchel 'embarrassing' after the Chelsea manager's complaint about the referee following his side's Champions League quarter-final knockout at Real Madrid last night.

Tuchel aired his frustration in his post-match interviews, alleging he saw match official Szymon Marciniak 'smiling and laughing' in discussions with Carlo Ancelotti, and accused him of choosing the 'wrong time' for the chat.

His evening ended on a sour note after his side's knockout, despite them winning the second leg 3-2 after a stellar, battling performance.
