In Sunday’s game, Jose Mourinho was sent out with hardly two minutes remaining, displaying his usual actions.
The Special One, Roma’s coach, received his first yellow card after a hysterical run from the bench to the sideline to confront referee Gianluca Aureliano over a call. After that, he was kicked out of the stadium because he was so angry at another decision.
Teun Koopmeiners headed a cross from Aleksey Miranchuk past Rui Patricio in the eighth minute, putting Roma 1-0 down. Just six minutes before halftime, the home team got back on level terms thanks to a foul on Rick Karsdorp by Matteo Ruggeri in the area.

Roma is now in eighth place in the league with 29 points, despite being winless in four of their previous five league games. They trail behind seventh-placed Lazio and sixth-placed Atalanta by one point each, while they are four points behind fourth-place Fiorentina.

Roma faces Lazio in the Coppa Italia quarter-finals on Wednesday and Milan on Sunday, kicking off a massive week for the club that includes Mourinho’s suspension.
However, his suspension will only apply to the match against Milan because the Coppa Italia is a separate competition from the other matches.
