Jose Mourinho Emotions with Journalist Questions about Gareth Bale

DBasia.news – Tottenham Hotspur coach, Jose Mourinho, was emotional by a journalist’s question after the London Derby match.

In a match that took place at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Friday (5/2), the hosts were defeated by a thin score of 0-1. The only goal for Chelsea’s victory was scored by Jorginho from the penalty spot.

This result made Tottenham swallow three defeats in a row. The Lilywhites are also increasingly scattered from the competition to the championship ladder.

After the match, Mourinho underwent an interview session on the sidelines. Initially, the Portuguese man answered Alison Bender’s question as a reporter who was on duty straightforwardly.

But the look on Mourinho’s face changed drastically when Bender asked about the reasons for not playing Gareth Bale. The Welsh national player was only sitting on the bench even though he had time to warm up.

Even though Mourinho has only made two substitutions. He entered Erik Lamela and Lucas Moura simultaneously in the 69th minute.

With Harry Kane’s absence due to injury, Bale could be an option to add to Tottenham’s banging power. But that choice was not taken by Mourinho.

“Good question but I don’t think you deserve the answer,” Mourinho replied as he left the interview.

Mourinho’s emotions have not subsided yet, the same question was also thrown at the press conference after the match. This time the former Manchester United manager gave a longer answer.

“I tried my best, Gareth tried his best. Everyone is trying their best,” said Mourinho with an unfriendly expression.

From this statement, Mourinho seemed disappointed with the performance shown by Bale. The loan player from Real Madrid had indeed been given the opportunity in previous matches.

But Bale failed to make a positive impact in Tottenham’s game. This made the player rarely play the full 90 minutes.
