Blackstars midfielder Michael Essien will not say sorry to Leon Osman for his "crunching" challenge on the Everton midfielder.
The Chelsea star is disappointed with the post-match reaction to the tackle and believes he did nothing wrong, although it did earn him a booking during the 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge.
Tim Cahill asked Essien to say sorry and claims he is getting a reputation for "dodgy" challenges.
Now Cahill hopes Essien will apologise once he has seen a replay of the incident, which left Osman requiring lengthy treatment from physio Mick Rathbone.
Cahill said: "I was behind Ossie (Osman), so I didn't really see the tackle. I only heard the crunch. "If he's gone over the top, he'll apologise. He's known for a few dodgy tackle-i think he will know it and apologise'
Everton boss David Moyes described the tackle as "not the best" but referee Alan Wiley showed only a yellow card to the Ghanaian international.
