Jose Mourinho handed four-game touchline suspension for verbally abusing Anthony Taylor during Europa League final

Roma’s head coach, Jose Mourinho, has been handed a four-match suspension by UEFA due to his misconduct during the Europa League final last month. Mourinho faced significant backlash after directing abusive comments towards English referee Anthony Taylor following his team’s loss to Sevilla. In addition, UEFA has imposed a ban on West Ham fans from attending their next away match in European competition, with an additional match suspension for two years. This decision comes after West Ham supporters threw projectiles onto the field during their victorious Europa Conference League final against Fiorentina in Prague earlier this month. As a result, Fiorentina’s defender, Cristiano Biraghi, sustained a head injury from an object hurled by a spectator. Mourinho, during a post-match press conference, openly criticized Taylor, and subsequent video footage revealed him gesturing angrily at Taylor and officials in the stadium car park while exclaiming “disgrace.” UEFA formally charged Mourinho on June 2. The Premier League and Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) condemned the distressing incident at Budapest Airport, where Taylor was confronted by enraged fans. West Ham promptly condemned the unacceptable behavior displayed by a portion of their support after Biraghi’s injury. The club declared that individuals identified would be reported to the police, receive indefinite bans, and be prohibited from entering the London Stadium or traveling with the team. West Ham has also been fined €8,000 (£6,882) by UEFA for the pitch invasion that occurred.
