Mauricio Pochettino has admitted things can go out of hand due to high emotions during a game.
Players got involved in a heated argument after Eric Dier restored parity for Tottenham Hotspur. Dier aggressively reacted to the Arsenal supporters by putting his finger to the mouth and later Spurs players had a clash with the Gunner substitutes.
Both the clubs are now facing FA investigation after having been charged for not controlling their players. Arsenal went on to win the game 4-2 but the incident marred the environment.
Spurs boss insists he won’t say much as the matter is under investigation. “It is difficult in that moment to control your emotions, it is not easy.
“It is true I was far away and then I ran in and I was late [to the incident]. It was difficult to see what happened. We will see what is going to happen with the FA charge and investigation.
“To be honest, I didn’t talk with him [Dier]. If you are Arsenal you take it in one direction, if you are the Arsenal manger, or Spurs manager or one of the players warming up, you back your player.
“It is sensible not to talk too much because now it is about what happened because now the FA will charge or not and it is under investigation.”
