Sign of respect? A smirking Jose Mourinho ignored the message above his head during Hell Clasico and faces a touchline ban
UEFA has opened disciplinary cases against Real Madrid CF and FC Barcelona following the first leg of their UEFA Champions League semi-final on Wednesday.
Following last night's UEFA Champions League semi-final first leg between Real Madrid CF and FC Barcelona, UEFA has opened the following disciplinary cases against the clubs.
The case against Real Madrid is in relation to the throwing of missiles, a pitch invasion, the red card shown to Pepe, the dismissal of coach José Mourinho, as well as the inappropriate statement given by Mr Mourinho to the media after the match (UEFA Disciplinary Regulations, Article 5 – Principles of conduct).
The case against Barcelona regards the red card administered to José Pinto.
Both cases will be heard by the UEFA Control and Disciplinary Body on Friday 6 May.
Sent to the stands: Mourinho was dismissed from the touchline during the ill-tempered semi-final clash
Get your goggles: Fans around the world were disappointed with the constant diving of certain players
Seeing red: Pepe was sent off in the second-half for a rash tackle on Dani Alves
Respect the ref: Players from both teams were quick to surround the referee throughout the match
