Jose Mourinho and Frank Lampard exchanged heated words from across their respective technical areas, with the Spurs boss seemingly unhappy at Lampard’s animated behaviour during the first-half of the Carabao Cup tie between Chelsea and Tottenham.
Lampard holds a perfect record in the three games he’s managed against a Mourinho side.
The two first came up against each other in opposing dugouts when Lampard was in charge at Derby while Mourinho was at Manchester United.
The former Chelsea midfielder led the Championship side to a famous win on penalties and he also won both league games last season as Blues manager against Tottenham.
Their first encounter this season came in the Carabao Cup fourth round with Mourinho looking to pick up his first win against Lampard.
But it was Chelsea who struck first with Timo Werner grabbing the game’s first goal.
The Express report that Mourinho soon became agitated on the touchline trying to push his Tottenham side forward.
However, the Tottenham boss soon turned his attention to Lampard in the opposite dugout.
After Erik Lamela was penalised for putting a hand in Kurt Zouma’s face, Mourinho was caught exchanging words with Lampard.
The Spurs head coach was telling Lampard that he was talking too much by making chatterbox signals with both hands.
During a lengthy argument on the touchline, the Spurs manager accused Lampard of being too ‘gobby’ with his side winning, saying: “F***ing hell Frank, when you’re losing 3-0 you’re not standing up here.”
Lampard didn’t take too kindly to the gesture with the fourth official having to mediate the pair of them.
The Chelsea boss could be seen laughing off the small exchange soon after.
