I didn't feel anything."Ben [Gibson, Boro defender] thought he bit me, so that's why he reacted like he did. But I told him now we were just talking, there was no problem." Rows between players continued in the tunnel after the full-time whistle, but managers Jose Mourinho and Steve Agnew – standing in following this week's sacking of Aitor Karanka – denied having seen any incident. Bailly did not reference the clash when posting on social media following the game, writing on Twitter: "We knew how to work seriously and suffer until the last minute. Three points well earned."</blockquote>
