Serbian defender Ivanovic escaped punishment after appearing to headbutt James McCarthy at the end of Chelsea's 1-0 win over Everton on Wednesday night

Jose Mourinho stormed out of a post-match interview after he was asked about Branislav Ivanovic's clash with James McCarthy.

Serbian defender Ivanovic appeared to headbutt McCarthy at the end of Chelsea's last gasp 1-0 win over Everton on Wednesday night.

The 30-year-old escaped punishment from referee Jonathan Moss but could yet face retrospective disciplinary action for violent conduct.

After the match Mourinho was asked by the BBC: "When you see that melee afterwards, if you see that one of your players has done something wrong will you take action if they have done anything wrong?"

To which he responded: "Sorry, see you tomorrow," before promptly walking off.

The former Real Madrid boss had earlier played down the incident saying: "Did Branislav Ivanovic go in with his head? Don't make me laugh. Don't make me laugh."

“I’m more concerned with my reaction because one more question, I leave, and then you are not happy. The next question for that story, I leave.

“You know, I am tired of the stories and I am never tired of football. Football is emotion and that is what he had here."
