Mourinho blames referee for Bremen humble

Chelsea’s manager Jose Mourinho has pointed fingers at the referee Harm Osmers, that officiated the pre-season friendly between the Blues and German side Werde Bremen.

The former Real Madrid’s boss feels the referee was unfair with his decisions and perceives his officiating as a ”Circus” to impress the home supporters.

Speaking after the game, he said:

“I learned nothing from this game,” the Portuguese told reporters. “Our expectations are not fulfilled because, when we decided to have this match here in Bremen, we thought about an evolution in difficulty.

“We were expecting a fast game, a competitive game, but we come here and the referee thought this was a circus for Bremen fans – for them to have fun – and he killed the match.

“This game, for us, would have been perfect. I like the Werder Bremen team – they are fast, intense and they defend with a lot of people.

“The opponent is perfect for us to compete today but we couldn’t play.”

Chelsea lost the game by 3 un-replied goals.
