Kepa Arrizabalaga paid back his team-mates by sitting out Chelsea's 2-0 win over Tottenham, Blues head coach Maurizio Sarri says.
Chelsea's 4-3 shootout loss to Manchester City in Sunday's Carabao Cup final was overshadowed by Kepa's refusal to be substituted with penalties looming.
Initially downplayed as a "misunderstanding", the world's most expensive goalkeeper was subsequently fined one week's wages and dropped to the bench as Willy Caballero took his place in a defeat of Spurs secured by Pedro's strike and a Kieran Trippier own goal.
