Jose Mourinho watches Roma win from team bus outside stadium due to touchline ban
Roma team beat Spezia 1-0 in dramatic fashion on Sunday afternoon from the confines of the team coach.The former Chelsea boss is currently serving a touchline ban in the Serie A after he was sent off in the 91st minute against Hellas Verona.Mourinho was dismissed after throwing numerous insults at referee Luca Pairetto and making references to the Calciopoli scandal of 2006.One member of the coaching team and Roma director Tiago Pinto also picked up a ban.But it didn’t deter the trio from heading to Spezia for the match, though they opted to watch on an iPad screen on the coach rather than in the actual stadium – as they showed on social media after the match.It took until the 99th minute for Roma to break the deadlock at the Stadio Alberto Picco, with Tammy Abraham firing a fierce penalty in the bottom corner after VAR spotted that Nicolo Zaniolo had been kicked in the face as he attempted to head the ball home.Roma deserved to head home with all three points as they dominated proceedings. They struck the woodwork on our separate occasions and also missed several key opportunities that would have put the game to bed.After the game, goalscorer Abraham spoke of how Roma struggled to find the back of the net, he joked: “The goal seemed cursed.“Near the end, I was half a step away from the goal line but I couldn’t get a foot on the ball.
