After the final, the Portuguese manager was unhappy and shared, “It was an intense, masculine, vibrant match with an official who seemed to support Sevilla. It was a card, card, card during the whole game.”

Anthony Taylor denied a clear penalty for AS Roma and was integral to the Spanish team’s victory in the final.

Mourinho lost for the 1^st time in his career European final as he won the previous six, but the English referee definitely helped Jose’s streak to end.
