"Mourinho is killing Spanish football"
After the second leg of the Spanish Super Cup, Barcelona players condemned coach Jose Mourinho's brutal and unsightly tactics.
While Xavi Hernandez said that the "Special One's" tactical vision was too bad and "a shame for football in general", center-back Gerard Pique said that "Mourinho is killing Spanish football."
In the match early this morning, Messi's brilliant performance helped Barcelona beat Real Madrid 3-2 in the second leg of the Spanish Super Cup, thereby winning the first title of the new season with a total score of 5-4 after two matches.

The start of a series of strong collisions between the two teams was when Brazilian defender Marcelo jumped up and tackled Messi dangerously at the beginning of the second half. And Marcelo was also the first player to be sent off after kicking Fabregas straight in the leg in injury time.
Immediately after that situation, players and coaches of both teams also got into a fight, forcing the referee to pull out two more red cards to punish Oezil and Villa, who were then taken off the field.
After the match, Spanish television also captured the scene where coach Mourinho poked his hand into the eye and pinched the ear of Barca assistant Tito Vilanova.
It seems that the punishment that UEFA gave Mourinho after the first leg of the semi-final between Barca and Real in the Champions League last season was not enough to make the former Inter coach repent. According to the Spanish press, it is likely that after the "dirty play" in the match this morning, the "Special One" will continue to receive more punishment.
Remember, in the meetings last season, Mourinho's team often played rough and in every match they were sent off./.
