Roma coach José Mourinho confronted referee Anthony Taylor with a foul-mouthed rant in the car park after his side were beaten on penalties by Sevilla in Wednesday’s Europa League final.

Mourinho was bidding for a record sixth victory in a major European final, but Sevilla ultimately prevailed in a bad tempered match which saw 13 yellow cards, including one for the Roma boss.

Seven of those cards were shown to Roma players – a record for a final in a competition – but the Serie A side were also left furious when Taylor opted not to award them a penalty in the first half for what looked to be a clear handball.

Mourinho threw his loser’s medal to a young fan in the crowd at full-time, and the Portuguese could not hide his disgust when he bumped into the refereeing team in the car park.

Speaking to Sky Italia after the game, the Portuguese said “It is an unfair result with events against us … the referee seemed Spanish, yellows everywhere. Lamela should have been sent off.”

The 60-year-old can probably expect to hear from Uefa regarding his conduct.
