Mourinho furious with the referee: 'you're a disgrace!'
Congratulations,' Roma coach José Mourinho said sarcastically to the refereeing team led by Anthony Taylor at the end of the Europa League final lost on penalties against Sevilla.
After his venomous words in the post-match interviews at the end of the Sevilla v Roma loss, the Special One also sought confrontation before boarding the coach for the airport, insulting English referee Taylor and also scolding the UEFA referee commission president Rosetti using heavy words.
Will a disqualification be forthcoming?
Roma disappointment
It was a bitter Budapest for Roma, who exited the Europa League in the most painful and saddest way, on penalties, after having deserved to lift the Cup in the 120 minutes of play against Sevilla.
Great bitterness
It was inconsolable bitterness for many Giallorossi players who burst into tears, but also for José Mourinho who had to bow his head only as he cherished the historic double consecutive success in Europe after last year's Conference.
Mourinho irrepressible
Like the players, for José Mourinho it was an intense final, a real rollercoaster marathon with an endless rollercoaster of emotions. He shouted, preached calmness, railed against the referee and his assistants, was cautioned and gave way to his staff.
Much disappointment
In the longest match ever (a good 146 minutes of actual play) culminating in the mistakes from the penalty spot that cost the Europa League, the Portuguese, who tried everything to push his team over the hurdle, was worn down deep inside.
Head held high
And if in the 120 minutes and more it was the players who took the stage in various capacities, once the verdict came it was José Mourinho who took it in turn. First with a moving speech to his players, then with a teary-eyed tour of the pitch and subsequent standing ovation from the opposing fans as well.
Medal given away
During the ceremony Mourinho slipped the medal off his neck, approached the stands and gave it to a young fan, who then proudly displayed it.
The words in the press conference
José Mourinho vented his anger in a press conference after Roma lost the Europa League final on penalties against Sevilla. The Portuguese coach is harsh against the club: 'Not playing in the Champions League I think is good news.
Mourinho vs. referee Taylor
The Special One after his venomous words in the post-match interviews at the end of the Sevilla v Roma loss also sought confrontation before boarding the coach for the airport insulting the English referee Taylor: 'you are a disgrace'!
The outburst
Then he reloaded on the other members of the refereeing team, before reloading: 'Even Rosetti was able to say that it was not a penalty. You, on the other hand, were just not capable. F**k off!" Embarrassed Rosetti disengaged and tried to prevent the situation from escalating.

There are so many sports disciplines in which people jump. In addition to athletics, in which jumps are divided into four categories (long, high, triple, and pole vaulting), many sportsmen and women excel in real flights, for example, with skis and snowboards, but also with cars, motorcycles, bicycles, and....parachutes.
Man has always dreamed, after all, of flying, and this is one of the most direct ways to experience that feeling of freedom that humans have been chasing for centuries.
The magazine Forbes has grouped together 10 of the longest leaps made by athletes in history. Some of them are truly impressive.

What is the most exhausting sport in the world?
According to a research promoted by ESPN, a US television station entirely dedicated to sport, the discipline that implies a greater overall effort of our body, thus being the most tiring ever (as well as one of those that involves the greatest risk of serious injuries), is boxing.
The study took into account, for each discipline analyzed, multiple parameters including strength, endurance, speed, agility and coordination required in the race, to be related to the average expenditure of energy, both physical and mental.
