Jose Mourinho Rants About Referees After Real Madrid Defeat: 'The Poor Guy Couldn't Handle the pressure... Sending Someone Who's 41 Years Old'
Mourinho said two first-half incidents should have brought red cards and showed printed photos to support his complaint against the match officials.
- On Sunday, Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho criticized referee Miguel Angel Ortiz Arias and VAR Daniel Jesus Trujillo Suarez after a 2-1 loss to Atletico Madrid, displaying printed photos of disputed challenges during his post-match news conference.
- Mourinho alleged the refereeing committee made mistakes appointing 41-year-old Ortiz Arias, who lacks international experience, while claiming Trujillo has a history of unfavorable decisions against Real Madrid in recent matches.
- Holding photos of challenges involving Jude Bellingham and Federico Valverde, Mourinho argued Atletico should have received "two clear red cards," though he admitted he had not reviewed Dean Huijsen's red card replay.
- Atletico coach Diego Simeone declined to discuss officiating, preferring to focus on his team's performance, while Real Madrid dropped to fourth in the LaLiga table, trailing leaders Barcelona by six points.
- Addressing the title race, Mourinho stated, "If 'they' leave us in peace, and let us compete," asserting there is still a long way to go this season despite the deficit.
