Jose Mourinho explains Tammy Abraham refusal despite record-breaking Roma exploits

Jose Mourinho has revealed he refuses to praise Tammy Abraham because he can always improve, after the former Chelsea forward scored the winner in Roma's 1-0 victory over Leicester City.

Abraham leaped highest from Lorenzo Pellegrini's corner and directed a powerful header past Kasper Schmeichel for his 25th strike of the season. This proved to be the only goal of the game as Roma booked their place in the Europa Conference League final against Feyenoord later this month.

After drawing 1-1 at the King Power Stadium in the first-leg, Roma produced a professional performance in the Italian capital and Abraham played a vital role in sealing their spot in Albania's final. He led the line superbly, running the channels while also holding the ball up to bring his team-mates into play.
