Hugo Lloris and Joe Hart noticed a problem with the crossbar's height and informed Mourinho about that. The Portuguese coach took the matter to the match observer of UEFA.

After the match, Mourinho posted a picture on Instagram, almost touching the crossbar, and attached it to this comment, "I thought my height increased, but I discovered that the goal post was 5 centimeters low."

"I am not a goalkeeper, but I have been playing football since childhood, and when I stand under the goal and raise my arms I know the distance, so I immediately confirmed there was a problem."

"We brought the match observer to make sure, and the height was less than 5 centimeters than normal, and we asked to replace the goal frame with the correct dimensions," he added.
