Chelsea
manager Jose
Mourinho, has
blamed referee
Jonas Erikkson
for their loss
in the UEFA
Super Cup to
Bayern
Munich,
insisting that he shouldn’t have sent off Ramires for a second
bookable offence.
The Brazilian midfielder was given his marching orders in the
88th minute, forcing Chelsea to play the last five minutes of
normal time with 10 men.
Mourinho said: “I’m disappointed because
the best team lost. The team that most
deserved to win, lost. But that happens in
football.
“People who earn their living in football always feel there’s a
very important rule: the passion for football. If you are in love
with football, you don’t kill a final with a second yellow like
this.
“If you ask me in pure terms, rule by rule, yes it was a second
yellow card. But you don’t do every action in that way.
“A good English referee stops the game and tells Ramires,
“Look, you’ve not hurt anyone, but you mustn’t do that again”.
He tells the Bayern players, “Don’t dive. Don’t try to provoke.
Play a fair game”.”
