OFFICIAL: Mourinho has been suspended for four games after abusive language at UEL final
Mourinho has been suspended for four UEFA club competition matches after directing abusive language at a match official in the Europa League final, UEFA announced.
4-match disqualification for José Mourinho for his words towards referee Anthony Taylor; €55,000 fine for Roma and an away game with the away sector closed.
The Roma manager and his staff were verbally abusive towards the Premier League official numerous times during their loss to Sevilla in Budapest.
After the game, footage on social media showed Mourinho directing a string of expletives towards the officiating team in the car park, labelling their performance a "disgrace".
Mourinho continued his criticism of the officials in his post-match press conference, saying: "I need to defend my lads, and I must say that we are used to it, but still seeing this kind of refereeing in a European final is really, really hard.
"It was an intense, vibrant game with a referee who seemed Spanish. It was yellow, yellow, yellow all the time."
Meanwhile, West Ham have also been banned from having away fans at two European games, one of which is suspended.
