Palmer sat on the pitch while Chelsea and Forest players got into an altercation

Enzo Maresca's Chelsea failed to continue their good run of results against a Nottingham Forest side that fought hard and managed to take a point from Stamford Bridge. Beyond the result, after the match, images of Cole Palmer went viral during a brawl between the two teams.

A camera in the stands of the London stadium captured it: in that moment of tension between the two sides, Cole Palmer turned away. He first looked, from a distance, at what was going on and, far from getting involved in the ugly mess between the two teams, he decided to watch from afar.

When he saw that it didn't stop, he sat down on the grass to wait for the head-to-head to end. An image that has not taken long to go viral in England and has already reached the rest of the world. The coldness that always accompanies the Briton, also in his characteristic celebrations, has also been noticed in this aspect.

Many fans commented that the Blues star avoided getting involved in the altercation because he had already been cautioned in the 75th minute and therefore wanted to avoid seeing a possible red card.
