Mourinho Uses Photos to Protest Romero Decision After Real Madrid Defeat

Real Madrid’s coach arrived at his post-match press conference with images in hand, turning the room’s attention to two incidents he believed had shaped the contest.

Madrid demand Romero dismissal

  1. The Real Madrid manager reviewed two disputed moments from the match using visual evidence during his media appearance.
  2. His strongest complaint concerned Cristian “Cuti” Romero, whom he felt should have been sent off.
  3. The coach also delivered a fierce assessment of the official, saying: “He is a poor referee; he has no experience.”

The remarks added another refereeing dispute to Madrid’s continental football calendar, with the coach making clear that he viewed the decision involving Romero as a missed red card rather than a routine foul call.
