'Proper fighting!' - Wrexham's James McClean turns up at Vancouver boxing gym after spat with Chelsea's Levi Colwill

During Wrexham's friendly with Chelsea, McClean and Colwill almost came to blows after just two minutes. The former made a tackle that the defender disagreed with and shoved him, leading to both players grabbing each other's shirts. Now, McClean has appeared to take a subtle dig at the Englishman on social media after visiting a Vancouver gym.

Wrexham earned a credible draw during the game but it was overshadowed by the spat, as players from both teams rushed to separate the two players, with manager Phil Parkinson even sprinting out of his technical area in an attempt to quash any tension.

McClean posted a gym selfie with the caption: "No pushing and shoving here... proper fighting."
