CBS Sports pundit Reo-Coker discussed the incident in the 1-1 draw, where Fabregas grabbed Saelemaekers' shirt on the touchline. 'To do that, it's inexcusable... It's completely wrong,' Reo-Coker stated during pre-match analysis.
The Belgian forward reacted furiously at the time, but Fabregas has since apologized. However, Reo-Coker stood by his criticism of the coach's behavior.
