HIGHLIGHT – Mourinho

 


Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho says he and Zlatan Ibrahimovic will not go “crying to the media” about the two controversies involving the Swede in the 1-1 draw with Bournemouth.

Bournemouth defender Tyrone Mings, 23, landed on the United forward’s head with his studs, but said afterwards the collision was “unintentional”.

Moments later, Ibrahimovic caught Mings in the face with his elbow at a corner.

“He jumped into my elbow,” said the former Paris St-Germain striker, 35.

Both players could face retrospective action if referee Kevin Friend says he did not see either incident.

“Zlatan is a big man,” added 54-year-old Mourinho.

“We are from that generation of street football and football for big guys. We are not the kind of generation who goes to the media and cries about what happened.

“What counts is the result. Nothing else matters for us.”
