Unfortunately for the Special One, referee Mike Dean noticed him and immediately brandished a yellow card towards him. Mourinho could only smile as the new decade began for him in quite possibly the worst manner possible.

After the match, Jose Mourinho had an interesting take on his booking.
“The yellow card was fair, because I was rude. But I was rude to an idiot,” he said after the match when asked about the yellow card.
“I was rude, but I was rude with an idiot.”
“I clearly deserved it.” 😶

Tottenham went on to lose the match 1-0 after Danny Ings’ brilliant early strike. Tottenham could not find the equaliser through the match. Even worse, Harry Kane limped off with what appeared to be a hamstring injury.
Tottenham are currently 6th on the table. This loss has put them 6 points adrift of Chelsea at 4th place. The gap could prove to be much too hard to conquer should Harry Kane get side-lined with for weeks or even months to come.
