Villas-Boas takes complaint to Riley

ANDRE VILLAS-BOAS yesterday revealed he had complained to referees’ chief Mike Riley about the performance of the officials in Chelsea’s Premier League defeat at Manchester United.

Villas-Boas was still smarting yesterday with the manner of what was his first loss in charge of the Blues and his first defeat in a league game for 17 months.

Chelsea fell 2-0 behind at Old Trafford on Sunday to goals which replays showed should not have stood as both scorers had been offside, with United eventually running out 3-1 winners.
