Jose Mourinho Hits Out At Barca After Loss

Jose Mourinho has hit out at Barcelona after his Real Madrid side lost the Spanish Super Cup.

The two Spanish giants went head to head for the second time this season, playing the first leg at the weekend.

Real Madrid and Barcelona were locked together at 2-2 after the first ninety minutes and they two sides faced each other again last night.

The match marked the Barcelona debut for new signing Cesc Fabregas - and it was his side that came out of top 3-2 (winning 504 on aggregate)

But it was a match that was marred by incident as Mourinho is believed to have poked the Barcelona assistant in the eye towards the end of the game.

And the Real Madrid manager criticised Barca in his post match interview.

Speaking to The Sun he said: "Real Madrid gave a spectacular performance from the first to the last minute. We came here to play.

"There were no ball boys in the second half, which is something typical of small teams when experiencing difficulties.

"That is not a criticism, I'm just stating a fact.

"I'm not going to say we're happy because we didn't win the Spanish Super Cup, that would be hypocritical of me.

"But we intended to play like men and not fall on the ground at the slightest touch."
