Mourinho answers taunts

-

After listening to taunts from the Juventus crowd for 90 minutes, Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho couldn’t help but pay them back in kind. Mourinho was escorted off the pitch yesterday after celebratin­g his side’s 2-1 comeback win over the Italian side in the Champions League by cupping his hand to his ear to the crowd after the final whistle. The gesture sparked a small altercatio­n with Juventus players that overshadow­ed an important result for United, which has struggled domestical­ly in the EPL but now has a great chance of reaching the knockout stage in Europe.
