MOURINHO TO REFEREE TEIXEIRA : SPANISH FOOTBALL QUOTES OF THE WEEK

Slow day relativelty speaking for SPANISH FOOTBALL , although tomorrow things will certainly pick up as La Liga gets into action with both Barça & Real Madrid playing their respective games.

However, thought I let all the readers know what REAL MADRID Coach MOURINHO told - straight at his face - the Spanish Cup 2º leg quarter-final referee TEIXEIRA after the 2 - 2 result which knocked out Real from the Spanish Cup. The Madrid Club claimed 2 penalties, a wrongly disallowed goal, a harsh red card to Ramos, no cards to Barça Dani Alves after 4 "extreme" tackles...etc.


As the below image shows,  Mourinho went to the carpark where the referees had their cars & waited for the referee Teixeira, their along with Mourinho,  was Spanish Sports Barcelona based paper "Mundo Deportivo" to witness the following events:

Mourinho spoke out to the referee the following , making this the QUOTES OF THE WEEK in Spanish Football:


"¡Vaya artista! ¡Cómo te gusta joder a los profesionales!"


'Artista, jodes a los que trabajan. No respetas a los profesionales serios. Ahora te vas a fumar un puro y te reirás, sinvergüenza".

translated to English ( at times literal which may make it worst than it really is. In fact its very colloquial):


"What an Artist! You love f*cking up the professionals!"


"Artist, you f*ck around those who do their work. No respect for the serious professional. You're going to now smoke a cigar and you'll laugh, your a rascal. "


The man does not mix his words & obviously speaks his mind.

FC BARCELONA 3 ARSENAL 1 ( 4-3 AGG) RESULT | FC BARCELONA MOVES ON IN CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

FC BARCELONA defeat 3 - 1 ARSENAL FC ( 4 - 3 aggregate ) tonight at "Camp Nou" to knock out of the CHAMPIONS LEAGUE competition the English Club & advance forward into the Quarter Final stages. There was a "minor scare" for Barça when Arsenal managed to "score" but with Arsenal down to 10 men after Van Persie was sent off the locals did their job.

Iniesta & Messi open the Arsenal can

Barça dominated the first half of the match with 80% of the ball in their possesion. Arsenal was ultra - defensive & looked as if their strategy was to hold on to their advantage from the 1ºst leg & attempt an odd counter-attack to find some luck. Arsenal goalie Szczesny injured his hand & Spaniard Alumunia took his place & ended up being the best for Arseanl as the match went on with more the a dozen crucial saves.

The second half gave us all the real action with Iniesta finding a magical pass that LIONEL MESSI put into the net in the 49th min. 

Xavi scores for FC Barcelona

Then came the unexpected & the "golden moment" for Arsenal when Nasri won a corner from nothing in which the awarded  kick ended in an own goal by Barça player BUSQUETS in the 53rd min that put Arsenal into the driving seat. Barça at this stage needed two goals to qualify but the event of the match occurred in the 56th min - especially for Arsenal - when Van Persie received his second yellow card after kicking the ball into the crowd after being called offside. This act was interpreted by the referee as an "offence/time-waster" & thus sent him off with a red card putting Arsenal in the difficult position of only having 10 men & Barcelona at "full-steam". Leaving the controversy aside about if it was a yellow or not , it definitely was the turning point & the precise moment that Arsenal lost any chance of knocking out Barcelona from Champions.

From this point Barcelona "smelt blood" & poured the pressure that burst the Arsenal bubble with a XAVI 69th min goal. 

Messi scores a penalty

Barça needed another to qualify & they attacked in waves with the Arsenal defence & goalie stopping everything fired at them. But a Pedro incursion in the 71st min lead to a box foul that was called a penalty & LIONEL MESSI stepped up & scored the third & definite goal.  Arsenal reacted with Arshavin coming on along with Bendtner, & it nearly paid off when Bendtner in a counter-attack was about to shot the possible winner ( & qualifier) , but was put off in the last moment by Barça midfielder Mascherano who literally saved the night for Barça. Arsenal had the qualification in their hands,  but ...


FC Barcelona move on & Arsenal will be unhappy & talking for days about the red card to Van Persie to which some will say he kicked the ball out on purpose & others that he did not hear the off-side call...
