UEFA announced on Thursday that it has opened disciplinary proceedings against Portuguese Chelsea player Pedro Neto. This came after he pushed a ball boy during the team's match against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League round of 16 second leg. The incident occurred in the final minutes of the match, when Chelsea was trailing 4-2. Neto knocked down the ball boy while attempting to retrieve the ball, which led to a mass brawl between players from both teams. UEFA explained that the decision was made due to 'unsportsmanlike conduct,' and the relevant authorities will make a final decision in due time. Later, Neto apologized and gave the ball boy his shirt, as reported by TNT Sports.
