The years go by, the recipe smells a little warm, but José Mourinho is always so torrid on a bench. Another example on Sunday during Tottenham's beautiful victory against Manchester City (2-0). A match that could have been badly pinned for the Spurs if Lloris had not stopped a Gundogan penalty at 0-0.
This is bloody brilliant. Mourinho was celebrating Lloris' penalty save on Gundogan but then when he remembered Sterling had a yellow card and Mike Dean didn't book him for the second time for the dive, he was absolutely furious.

Hence the anecdote that occupies us. Just after the Blues captain stopped, Sterling managed to catch the ball but dived after a very light contact with the goalkeeper of the France team. The VAR, who had taken the lead to decide for the first penalty, this time decides to let play, to the delight of Mourinho we see congratulating himself on his bench with his assistant ... Until the last realize that Sterling already had a yellow card for an ugly sole early in the game and that there may be a way to request an expulsion.
Time to say it.

Mourinho's reaction is to laugh. Possessed of a blow by the devil while he smiled on his bench, the Portuguese puts down his bottle and rushes full of fury on the fourth referee to belch him in the face. Without winning, but whatever. Thanks for this moment.
