José Mourinho Questions Officiating in European Competitions

 José Mourinho has expressed concerns about recent officiating decisions in European competitions, hinting at possible consequences stemming from the 2023 Europa League final in Budapest, where his AS Roma side lost to Sevilla.

“I hope everything that's happened to me in European competitions is not a consequence of the Budapest final and I hope it's just random,” Mourinho stated.

Reflecting on past events, he added:
"Since that final, since my suspension, the things that happened to us – we didn't play Champions League because of a 120th-minute penalty that only the fourth official saw."
