"The reason for Sarri not showing up after the game is he's very frustrated, so he'd prefer not to come over here.

"He's been sent off. I think he's been offended as well, so he didn't feel it was the right thing to do, to speak to you [the media].

"I know you wanted him, so I'm sorry, but you can understand. He's frustrated at the game, frustrated at being sent off, and the other thing. He'd prefer not to come in.

"I think he's been told something from their bench, but don't ask me exactly what. I don't want to go down that line, but we'll see what we can do about that,'' Zola told a news conference according to Goal.

But according to ESPN, Maurizio Sarri lost his cool after he was branded a ’s*** Italian' by several individuals of the visiting club.
