I protected myself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mourinho\u2019s precaution was perhaps prompted by the two-match ban he received after being sent off during Roma\u2019s 2-1 defeat at Cremonese in late February.<\/p>\n<p>Their latest draw left Roma seventh in the table, just outside the European places with five games left to play, and Mourinho was especially incensed that Chiffi sent off Mehmet Celik after showing him a second yellow card in added time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe is the worst referee I have met in my life,\u201d Mourinho said. \u201cHe is the worst.
