Slovakia coach Francesco Calzona pushed Englishman Declan Rice after the final whistle as he tried to confront the referee.
The England midfielder was standing with the officiating team and began to approach Calzona, who responded by sticking his hand into Rice’s chest.
Rice responded to the incident, which involved Ivan Toney having to separate him from Calzona and other members of the Slovakian coaching team who rushed in.
Rice was pulled away from the scene of the incident and subsequently shook hands with the Slovakian players, still making his displeasure with their manager’s actions clear.
