Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has been accused of making a homophobic slur prior to Tuesday's Champions League game away to CSKA Moscow.

Mourinho is alleged to have called match officials "faggots" prior to the 1-1 draw in Moscow.


The European Gay and Lesbian Sports Federation (EGLSF) has filed a complaint against the Special One, while co-president Louise Englefield has urged UEFA to take action against the former Chelsea and Inter Milan boss.

"Homophobia is unacceptable from anyone in football, much less from one of the game's most senior figures," Englefield was quoted by the Daily Mail as saying.

"We are deeply disappointed that Mr. Mourinho is casually using homophobic terms of abuse in his workplace.

"It is especially sad that these comments have been made during the International Football v Homophobia campaign week.

"As long-standing partners of the FARE network, we call on UEFA to take action and impose appropriate sanctions."

NOW WITH ADDED VIDEO PROOF




at last there is a reason for my hatred of him that isn't "but i hate all the teams he coaches/he's an asshole, really"

All the comments here are actually more disappointing than the video itself.

None of you can read or watch something and comprehend it appropriately. If you had, derogatory language would not be the first thing you thought of. It doesn't matter what team you support, or how much useless hatred you have for the man, the point here is that Mourinho made a dumbass move and used a slang that is very closed to "fag" and slightly by "asshole" in front of the media and towards UEFA's laziness. It was very stupid, and stupid things happen everyday and even by you, so calm down and stop exaggerating what stupidity was done here as if you're the media's children. Because I highly doubt that you all are not contradicting yourselves right now.

This hardly means he's a homophobe, or that anyone here is condoning what he's done. What it means is that José should have kept his mouth closed, and that the media could care less or more about this situation.

Jesus. It's okay to think once and a while. I promise.

I agree with this comment a lot.
I always hated Mou, and this is disappointing even for him, but we can't just conclude ~from this alone~ that he is a homophobic person/has homophobic beliefs. He might, he could, but there isn't enough conclusive evidence of that.
