Eduardo Barroso’s son slams Mourinho, calls the Benfica manager despicable | OneFootball

Eduardo Garcia harshly criticized José Mourinho's stance at the end of Benfica's victory over Moreirense (4-0). The son of Eduardo Barroso, former president of Sporting's General Assembly, expressed his displeasure with the statements made by the Benfica coach, just like Rodrigo Roquette.

"Mourinho is one of the most despicable characters in football. He has always been this way. He just has a press that bows down to him," he wrote on the social network 'X'. It should be recalled that after the match in Moreira de Cónegos, the coach stated that there was a clear penalty on Vangelis Pavlidis that was not awarded, and that if it had happened to their rivals, they would be "crying" and "shouting".

"We scored three goals and could have scored four, because there was a penalty, one of those that gets forgotten because the score was 4-0, but that can decide games when it's 0-0, the kind that others cry about, pressure, shout, and keep pressuring, and we, with a different profile, do it less," he said.

However, Eduardo Garcia reposted a publication regarding Sporting's victory over Estrela da Amadora (4-0), where several refereeing experts also agreed that there was a penalty that should have been awarded in favor of Sporting. At the time, no member of the Alvalade club attacked the referees of the match.

Porto remains at the top of the league, with 38 points (one game less). Meanwhile, Benfica, coached by José Mourinho, completes the podium with 29 points.
