Jose Mourinho fumes at referee Anthony Taylor during the Europa League final<\/strong><\/p>\nRoma manager Jose Mourinho was seen confronting referee Anthony Taylor in the car park after his side\u2019s defeat in the Europa League final on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Mourinho suffered his first loss in seven European finals when Sevilla defeated the Italian side on penalties after a 1-1 draw in normal time.<\/p>\n
However, it was an ill-tempered affair on both sides, with Taylor brandishing a total of 14 yellow cards \u2014 a record for a Europa League match.<\/p>\n
After the match, a video shows Mourinho swearing at the Premier League referee in the car park and calling him a \u201cf\u2013king disgrace.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Portuguese coach fumed at Taylor in his postmatch news conference for not awarding a penalty kick to Roma for a perceived handball during the second half \u2014 as well as a number of other decisions he thought the referee mishandled.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe referee seemed like he was Spanish,\u201d Mourinho said. \u201cThe result was not fair, and there are a lot of instances to reexamine.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mourinho added: \u201cThis is a European final, and with this kind of refereeing, it is hard to accept. If we talk about refereeing situations, it\u2019s not two or three: it is many, quite apart from the big decisions. Those of us who have been in football a long time realise immediately what is going on.<\/p>\n
\u201c[Lorenzo] Pellegrini falls in box and given a yellow card; [Lucas] Ocampos did exactly the same thing and he doesn\u2019t get one. It\u2019s a scandal. VAR called the referee and shames Ocampos, but there\u2019s no card given.<\/p>\n
\u201c[Erik] Lamela \u2014 who, by the way, scored one of the penalties \u2014 deserved a second yellow but didn\u2019t get it. And let\u2019s not even talk about the big decisions. That\u2019s just the small details.\u201d<\/p>\n
Having also received a yellow card during the match, Mourinho could be hit with a multi-match ban from future European games by UEFA.<\/p>\n
After receiving his runners-up medal on the pitch, Mourinho walked toward the stands and handed it to a young fan in the front row, and later said: \u201cI only keep the gold ones.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sixth-placed Roma face relegation-threatened Spezia in the final round of Serie A on Sunday, one point behind Atalanta and one point ahead of Juventus. Fifth place qualifies for the Europa League spot and sixth place for the Conference League.<\/p>\n
