His absence did not appear to hamper Roma as they still managed to beat Cagliari 2-1 on Wednesday.  

Shortly after the game, Mourinho took to Instagram to share a image of himself eating on the pavement outside Sardegna Arena.

The former Tottenham boss was seen wearing white trainers and a black puffer coat. He was also pictured eating food from a silver container, with a can of Coca-Cola beside him.

The Roma boss shared the photo on Instagram with the accompanying caption: ‘Game over… 3 points… Nice food (can’t go to dressing room) and one more kid Ohene Afena Gyan Felix’. 

Fans couldn’t help but laugh at Mourinho’s Instagram post as he didn’t appear too concerned. 

Mourinho’s blasé approach to his red card was further emphasised by his actions immediately he was escorted off the pitch during the Napoli game having sarcastically applauded the officials.  

However, he did not seem bothered about the red card and was seen climbing over the barriers at the Napoli game to watch his side in their 0-0 draw

Mourinho could be seen climbing on to a ledge to see over the barriers behind the dugout at the Stadio Olimpico, gesturing wildly and shouting instructions over to the Roma players. 

The former Manchester United manager posted the clip to his Instagram, joking he was ‘desperate to see a great football game’.

He went on to add: ‘When you have no ticket and you desperately want to watch a great football game.’ 

Nevertheless, Mourinho’s men managed to scrape a point from the crunch game, halting league leaders Napoli’s perfect start to the season and then backed it up with the Cagliari triumph.
