Mourinho: "I Feel Sorry For UEFA, Which Now Has To Spend Money To Transport The Conference League Trophy To Another City."


AS Roma's coach, Jose Mourinho, was mocking Maurizio Sarri and SS. Lazio after being eliminated from the Europa Conference League.


AS Roma will participate in a match called the Derby della Capitale in their upcoming Serie A match against Lazio.


AS Roma will enter this match after defeating Real Sociedad in the last 16 of the Europa League. Mourinho's teams won 2-0 on aggregate despite drawing 0-0 in the second leg.


Meanwhile, Lazio lost 1-2 in a row against AZ Alkmaar in the round of 16 Europa Conference League.


Lazio is the only one of seven Italian teams in Europe's top three competitions not to qualify for the quarter-finals.


After Lazio's defeat, Jose Mourinho capitalized on the occasion to ridicule their city rival.


"I feel sorry for UEFA, which now has to spend money to transport the Conference League trophy to another city. It may have remained in Rome, but now it may have to relocate to Florence," he said.


His words irritated Maurizio Sarri. after Jose Mourinho and AS Roma won the first edition of the European Conference League in 2022.


These comments are a heating spice ahead of the meeting between the two teams. Lazio won the first meeting 1-0 in November 2022, and AS Roma will be looking for vengeance in the upcoming match.
