Los Blancos manager Jose Mourinho’ antics in the second leg of Spanish Super Cup at Camp Nou, against traditional rivals http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604, continue to linger in the hindsight where where players from both clubs came to blows.
The acclaimed manager now faces a ban of 2 to 3 matches in the aftermath of his actions.
Spanish Super Cup caused a lot of controversy and nothing that happened on the pitch comes close to Jose Mourinho’s antics. The Real Madrid manager was seen poking Barcelona assistant coach Tito Vilanova in the eye.
Real Madrid lost 3-2 on the night and 5-4 on aggregate as they witnessed their nemesis lift their first trophy of the new campaign. The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 manager came under heavy criticism from the footballing fraternity following the result.
Mourinho is now likely to receive the due punishment. The Portuguese is being treated lightly by the tribunal but can face a ban up to three games.
Judge Rafael http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alonso-c5254 is keeping tabs on the acclaimed manager and might decide to penalize the special one for his involvement.
The Competition Committee chaired by Alfredo Florez can make a ruling on the incident Wednesday, October 5, 2011. The committee reached its conclusion after considering all the documentation and claims put forward by Real Madrid and Barcelona.
It is believed that Mourinho's reaction was preceded by a provocation by Tito Villanova. A two or three-match ban might be the penalty. This proposal is in the hands of Judge Florez, who will take a decision.
All signals point towards the manager getting a penalty but Tito Vilanova will not go unpunished either. Vilanova might be banned for a match, receive a warning or get away with a simple financial penalty.
These are troubling times for Jose Mourinho. The two-time UEFA Champions League winning coach has been in the news for all the wrong reasons.
First, he stirred controversy after refusing to answer in Catalan. He then received a fine from the Real Madrid administration for failing to wear the club’s official clothing.
