Real Madrid’s Mourinho has ‘trust’ in referees despite complaints
Jose Mourinho protested the referee’s decision to disallow Vinicius Junior’s goal and send him off for pulling an opponent’s hair during Real Madrid’s 1-0 win over Villarreal.
Real Madrid's manager Jose Mourinho expressed confidence in referees ahead of their upcoming Champions League match against Roma. Despite his recent criticisms of officials, Mourinho stated he has always held high regard for referees, both in Spain and Europe. This comes after Real Madrid's 1-0 win over Villarreal in La Liga, where a goal by Vinicius Junior was disallowed and the player received a red card for hair-pulling.
Mourinho's comments came as a reaction to his team's post-match protest following the controversial decisions. He added that he would discuss the topic further once back in Spain, and that the Italian media were currently more focused on the match itself rather than referee controversies.
