Former Roma striker Antonio Cassano has criticized Roman coach Jose Mourinho for his behavior after losing the Europa League final.

The Roman club lost to Sevilla in a penalty shoot-out (1:4), the main and extra time ended in a draw – 1:1. After the game, which took place in Budapest, Mourinho criticized the work of the brigade of referees led by the Englishman Anthony Taylor, and then in the parking lot he complained to them in a rude manner. Later, Roma fans tried to attack Taylor at the Budapest airport.

– He did some nasty things. Mourinho has something to blame. Everything that happened after the match was because of him. It started with him. He should be ashamed of himself, he did not accept defeat. And if the fans see his behavior, they consider themselves entitled to do the same and do what happened at the airport.

Since he said he was going on vacation, I hope he never comes back to Italy. Disgustingly, in these two years we saw only fights, he ruined the image of Roma. Let him go to Portugal and never come back. He complains, he doesn’t talk about football, he always blames others. Now the club has a shameful image. Come to Portugal! Cassano said on Bobo TV.

INFANTINO: “If there was no FIFA, there would be no football in 150 countries of the world”

FIFA President Gianni Infantino He commented on World Cup ticket prices, saying they reflected “absolutely insane” demand for next summer’s tournament:

“We have six to seven million tickets and in 15 days we received 150 million ticket requests. So every day we have 10 million requests. This shows how strong the World Cup is.”

FIFA has sold just 44 million tickets in almost 100 years of the World Cup. So we were able to sell tickets for the 300th anniversary of the World Cup in two weeks. Just imagine. “This is absolutely crazy.”

Infantino also noted that funds from ticket sales would be reinvested into world football, but did not specify a specific amount:

“The important thing is that the revenue from this goes back into football around the world. If it weren’t for FIFA, there would be no football in 150 countries of the world. Football exists thanks to the revenues we get from the World Cup, and we reinvest that into football around the world.”

Previously, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer called on FIFA to further reduce 2026 World Cup ticket prices.
