Jose Mourinho snubs press after angering referee as Roma suffer Champions League blow

Jose Mourinho's Roma saw their hopes of a top-four Serie A finish dashed for good on Saturday, and the manager opted out of press duties after his team lost to Fiorentina.

The Giallorossi have had one eye on Europe for some time, with six winless games preceding their trip to Tuscany. They took an early lead against Fiorentina through Stephan El Shaarawy, only for the Viola to turn things around with two late goals.

Mourinho was shown a yellow card by referee Giovanni Ayroldi, and it wasn't the first time the Portuguese has run into trouble with officials. He will miss the season closer against Spezia, but avoided speaking to the media after the latest defeat as he prepares his team for the upcoming Europa League final.
