separated after Leicester City's 3-0 win at Swansea
City on Saturday.
Swansea City manager Garry Monk was silent on reports
captain Ashley Williams and Leicester City forward Riyad
Mahrez were involved in a post-match altercation.
Mahrez netted a hat-trick as league-leading Leicester saw off
Swansea 3-0 in the Premier League on Saturday, though the
Algerian forward was reportedly involved in a confrontation with
Williams afterwards.
According to reports, Mahrez tried to enter the home dressing
room at the Liberty Stadium and had to be led away by an
official
The pair had to be separated after shoving each other in the
tunnel and Williams then asked reporters where the Leicester
team coach was parked and made his way towards the bus, but
the defender did not attempt to board the vehicle.
Monk declined to give any information about the incident when
questioned by the press at his post-match press conference,
saying: "I wouldn't know anything about it."
Mahrez and Williams clashed during the game when the
Swansea skipper caught the attacker when trying to get the ball
back to take a free-kick, with referee Michael Oliver speaking to
both players but not showing either a yellow card.
Tensions continued to run high and Mahrez's record-breaking
Leicester team-mate Jamie Vardy shoulder-charged Williams
off the pitch later in the match.
