Jose Mourinho and Referee Anthony Taylor Gets Involved in Car Park Outburst
The manager of AS Roma, Jose Mourinho was left furious following his side defeat against Sevilla in the Europa League final.
The Portuguese International expressed his displeasure with the way Anthony Taylor managed the game. Roma were adamant Erik Lamela should have seen a second yellow following a cynical foul before he proceeded to score in the shootout, while they also had a penalty appeal waved away.
Mourinho went down to the car park of the Puskas Arena in Budapest, Hungary to confront the English official.
There he could be heard shouting: "It's a fucking disgrace man, it is a fucking disgrace"
Roma took the lead in the first half before Sevilla came back into the game in the second half before winning the trophy 4-1 on penalties. Jose also expressed his disappointment during his post-match conference about the way the game was been officiated.
Next year we won't be playing the Champions League and that's a good thing because we're not made for it. And let's hope that Taylor, only officiates games in the Champions League and does the same bullshit there that he did tonight, and not in the Europa League.
This is not the first time Mourinho has waited in the car park to vent his frustrations after a game. He waited at the Camp Nou car park to confront the ref following Real Madrid's Spanish Cup defeat to Barcelona in 2012.
