Ace football coach, Jose Mourinho, has been suspended for two matches due to an angry outburst at the referee in Roma’s Serie A draw with Verona.
Mourinho who was not pleased with the little time added as extra time at the end of a game with Roma that ended with a 2-2 draw, shouted at the referee, Luca Pairetto and mimicked a phone call, a gesture that questioned the referee’s independence, thus earning him a red card.
At the end of the match, Mourinho also grabbed the match ball and booted it away. He also refused to undertake his post-match media duties, on which he wrote on Instagram, “go home and have a nice dinner.”
The sports judge said Mourinho “turned to the fourth official, made serious insinuations against the referee.”
He also repeated the allegations in the tunnel on his way to the changing room, while trying to restrain director Tiago Pinto.
The Judge also fined Mourinho 20,000 euros ($22,660).
