Chelsea defender Thiago Silva has hit out a media friends in Brazil for mocking teammate Enzo Fernandez.

The Blues suffered a narrow Champions League round 16 loss at Borussia Dortmund, who will take a 1-0 first-leg lead to west London thanks to Karim Adeyemi, who bagged a sensational solo goal in the second half. Adeyemi's blistering pace saw him go the length of the pitch before rounding the goalkeeper.

Dortmund broke quickly following a Chelsea corner, with Fernandez the furthest man back. He was unable to go with Adeyemi, the Argentine was left trailing by the winger's pace, which has seen Britain's most expensive player come in for criticism - that has not sat well with Silva.

South America's TNT Sports posted an image of the Chelsea midfielder alongside the caption: "Call the Uber! Enzo Fernandez is looking for Adeyemi so far."

Silva has expressed his anger by replying to the post: "Lack of respect, huh!!! Be more serious with your work."
