Mourinho remark 'damages football', says UEFA official

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been criticised by UEFA for claiming the linesman “scored” Liverpool’s winner in their Champions League semi-final.

After watching his side lose to a controversial Luis Garcia goal at Anfield on Tuesday and go out of the Champions League 1-0 on aggregate to Liverpool, Mourinho said: “They scored, if you can say that they scored, because maybe you should say the linesman scored.”
