Jose Mourinho's Roma vs Lazio controversy shows Manchester United made right move

Former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho courted more controversy following a fiery derby between his AS Roma side and Lazio.

Mourinho's team fell to a 1-0 defeat away at their arch rivals. Roma were reduced to 10 men when Roger Ibanez received a straight red, 32 minutes in. Lazio had to wait until the second half to grab the winning goal though when Mattia Zaccagni scored.

Lazio's Adam Marusic and Roma's Bryan Cristante were then sent off in stoppage time as tensions boiled over. But, the real controversy was to come following the match when Mourinho and Lazio's president Claudio Lotito became involved in a confrontation.
