Following their 2-1 Premier League defeat at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, Chelsea are looking into a bottle that was thrown at the Aston Villa bench.

An open plastic bottle containing water appeared to be pouring down Villa’s celebrating bench, splashing staff, and players after the full-time whistle.

The area where the bottle appeared to be coming from, which appeared to be filled with both Chelsea fans and staff, was pointed out by one member of the staff.

Who is to blame is still a mystery. Chelsea has opened an investigation, but it has not yet made an official statement.

Additionally, it’s unclear whether Stuart Attwell and his staff members witnessed the incident or whether it will be included in his report. The Football Association has been contacted by CBS Sport for comment.

Ollie Watkins scored twice to overturn Joao Pedro’s Chelsea opener in the first half.
