West Ham star Jean-Clair Todibo was sent off after a moment of madness against Chelsea with every player involved in a on-pitch melee.
An incredible match full of drama at Stamford Bridge saw the Hammers go 2-0 up.
However, after a triple change from Chelsea, the Blues turned the game around with a last-gasp winner from Enzo Fernandez.
But there was still time for a huge on-pitch clash between everyone on the pitch.

After West Ham star Adama Traore pushed Marc Cucurella to the ground, Joao Pedro pushed the winger in the chest.
As the two players continued to battle one another, Todibo ran from across the pitch to wrestle with the Brazilian.
During the fracas, Todibo grabbed Pedro by the neck in violent fashion as Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez tried to get him off.
It sparked an almighty brawl, with all 22 players involved including Cole Palmer and Konstantinos Mavropanos, who both were booked for clashing close to red cards after nearly hitting each other in the race.
After referee Anthony Taylor was told to consult the pitchside monitor, he told Stamford Bridge that Todibo would be sent off “for violent conduct”.
