Mason Mount and Lisandro Martinez had a minor disagreement during the Premier League match between Chelsea and Manchester United on Saturday afternoon.
Both players started the match at Stamford Bridge and it got heated between the pair in the 37th minute.
Martinez fell to the ground while trying to keep the ball in play at the byline.
Mount tried to take the ball in but Martinez threw his body in front of the ball and shielded it away from the Englishman. Mount ended up giving a foul away.
Martinez then gave the 23-year-old a little shove after the foul had been given.
That triggered Mount, who immediately squared up to the Argentine.
But just as it looked like it was all going to kick off, Luke Shaw quickly got between the pair and pushed his England teammate away.
Martinez just stared out Mount as he was getting dragged away. Watch the moment below...
The moment has gone down well with United fans, with many thinking that Shaw 'saved' Mount. View some reaction below...
The game ended 1-1 after a dramatic final 10 minutes.
Jorginho scored from the penalty spot to give Chelsea the lead in the 87th minute, but Casemiro's tremendous header in the fourth minute of stoppage-time ensured both sides shared the spoils.
He said, per Manutd.com: “I think it was a good game. In the first half, we dominated the game. But also, that is why the opponent switched their system. And they made it a little more difficult for us, like we saw in the last minutes of the first half. In the second half, I think it was even. It was a battle between two teams of the same height. And in the end, I think a point was justified.
“It was deserved. It was tough, when you get so short for time, you get 1-0 down, I think it is really difficult after the fourth game in 10 days to fight back. But the team found their energy and their strength and fought back. And that’s really big for this team.”
