There seems to be more trouble for Roma coach José Mourinho who has been accused of unsporting behaviour during a U14 derby between Roma and Lazio.

The Special One was sent off in Roma’s 2-1 loss against Cremonese on Tuesday and made headlines at the end of the match, saying that he could take legal action against the fourth official.

He’s been banned for the next two Serie A games, meaning he will miss games against Juventus and Sassuolo.

According to Il Messaggero, as quoted by Gazzetta, Mourinho has found himself involved in a new controversy with Lazio accusing him of unsportsmanlike conduct during a U14 derby between the Biancocelesti and Roma last week.

According to the report, the Portuguese coach attended the game in the stands and booed a Lazio player, Alexandru Miloiu, while telling the young Giallorossi footballers to waste time pretending they had a muscle cramp.

Lazio website VoceLazio also reported that Mourinho and the senior players of the Roma squad who were also watching the match adopted a behaviour which ‘went against respect and sportsmanship, insulting opponents and telling their players to waste time.’
