Mourinho had to be restrained in car park after sniping at Taylor for being a “f***ing disgrace.” Mourinho had clashed with Taylor throughout the match and didn’t agree with his decisions. The AS Roma coach was hysically held back during one of the final’s many flashpoints.

The anger then spilled out after the game, where Mourinho confronted the referee in the car park.

He was then caught swearing in the direction of Taylor as he approached the referee’s mini-bus, sniping, ‘Congratulations, you f***ing disgrace’, before trudging off to the team bus.
