FA slaps Mourinho with big fine
Print Edition
CHELSEA manager Jose Mourinho has been fined 25,000 pounds (US$38,000) over comments he made following his side’s 1-1 draw at Southampton last month, the Football Association announced yesterday. Mourinho claimed there was a media-driven “campaign” against his team following a spate of diving allegations and said a yellow card shown to Cesc Fabregas for simulation during the game was a “scandal.”
“Following an Independent Regulatory Commission hearing, Jose Mourinho has been fined £25,000 after he was found to have breached FA Rules in relation to media comments,” the FA said. Mourinho was also warned about his future conduct, but escaped a touchline ban.
Chelsea was accused of diving following incidents involving Diego Costa, Willian, Gary Cahill and Branislav Ivanovic during games in December.
