Swansea boss Laudrup: Chelsea's Hazard will regret his actions

Michael Laudrup believes Eden Hazard will regret kicking a ballboy once he sees the replayed footage.

The Chelsea star made fairly forceful contact with a Swansea City ballboy during tonight's 0-0 Capital One Cup semi-final second leg at the Liberty Stadium and Swans boss Laudrup has indicated that he felt it was a very regretful incident.

Laudrup also made it clear that the young kid was not holding the ball up for the good of the club in a bid to waste time.

"No, no. Definitely not," said the Dane. "I think he was pushed and on top of the ball. I can understand all the frustrations when you are behind.

"I saw it from a very big distance from the bench. I've since seen it after the game. Hazard is a great player. When he sees the images I think he will regret it."
