Vintage Mourinho on display as Spurs boss sprints to the fourth official to campaign for a second yellow card for Raheem Sterling

Viewers around the globe that tuned in to watch Spurs v City were in for a treat as they witnessed a vintage Mourinho moment.

After the initially awarded penalty to City was saved by Hugo Lloris, his following challenge on Raheem Sterling was judged not a foul by VAR after initially been given by referee Mike Dean.

It all seemed calm and happy at the bench for Jose until his assistant reminded him of the yellow card not given to the already cautioned Raheem Sterling.

Mou’s brain chemicals spontaneously burst into a reaction, as José and his assistant charged towards the official over the touchline in tormenting fashion, asking for a yellow card for simulation.

Although it turned out just fine for Spurs afterwards as Steven Bergwijn and Son capitalized on Zinchenko’s red card as Tottenham came out with a 2-0 win.

While Spurs maintain 5th spot, the gap between Liverpool and the champions looks towering with 22 points separating the two.

More pressure builds on Pep as the league title looks to slip away from City’s hands. Nevertheless, the internet has been provided with another classic Jose meme format.
