club world cup exepl referee hackett warns chelseas colwill may face sanctions

Keith Hackett, a former Premier League referee, has warned that Chelsea star Levi Colwill could be sanctioned by FIFA because of his antics during the Blues recent 4-1 victory against Benfica in the FIFA Club World Cup Round of 16 encounter.

Chelsea took the lead against Benfica, thanks to Reece James free-kick.

Benfica were later awarded a late penalty by VAR which winger Angel di Maria converted to restore parity.

But Colwill was not happy with the decision of referee Slavko Vincic and the 22-year-old was seen giving the match official an earful.

It was widely reported that the English defender, who was given a yellow card, for his behaviour, called the referee a disgrace.
