Real Madrid: José Mourinho attacks La Liga refereeing again

Speaking at a press conference on Tuesday ahead of facing AS Roma in the Champions League, José Mourinho hit out at Spanish refereeing.

Last Saturday, José Mourinho was frustrated by the refereeing in the match against Villarreal (1-0) in La Liga. The Real Madrid coach had even refused to appear before the media after the match. Facing the press on Tuesday, José Mourinho tried to avoid the subject.

Mourinho takes a swipe at the refereeing

When questioned, José Mourinho nevertheless took a swipe at the performance of referee Isidro Diaz de Mera Escuderos. "Nothing, absolutely nothing. We are preparing for a Champions League match, and I have nothing to say about the league match. If I was angry? I already told your colleague that I did not want to comment on it, but I will try not to come back to it. I invite you to watch only the first minute of the match against Villarreal. And if you want, we can discuss it on Saturday. The first minute is enough to understand," said the Special One.
