'El Chiringuito's interview with José Mourinho produced several headlines, but also a singular anecdote.
At the start of the interview, Josep Pedrerol asked him about his black eye, an eye they could have covered up with makeup.
This was José Mourinho's response: "Poor Lacosta, a kid from Castilla, hit me with the ball. I was wearing glasses. But that's not why he wasn't called up (laughs)."
It's Diego Lacosta, an 18-year-old central midfielder from Real Madrid C who is training with the first team.
The midfielder was not called up against Schalke, but Mou already clarified with a laugh that it wasn't because of the hit from the ball.
