– Have you EVER seen anything like it!?Maurizio Sarri tries to substitute Kepa Arrizabalaga for Willy Caballero, but Kepa refuses to come off and Sarri is absolutely FURIOUS! pic.twitter.com/Q81v6ry3Kk— Sky Sports Football (@SkyFootball) February 24, 2019“I dont like that he leaves his coach and the assistant coach [Gianfranco Zola] in a situation of great fragility. It saddens me for them,” Mourinho, who lost his job at Stamford Bridge in 2016 said.“Luckily I never had to go through this.”Both manager and player have played down the incident, which has left many in the game stunned.Im telling you the truth it was a misunderstanding,” Sarri told talkSPORT. I understood that he had cramp so we needed to change because I didnt want a goalkeeper with cramp in the penalty shoot-out.”

Mourinho, though, did say he admired Kepa, who became the world’s most expensive goalkeeper when Chelsea paid 71m for him last summer, for his desire to help his side.Speaking to DAZN, he said: “The goalkeeper wants to show his personality, his confidence, wants to show that he is there and wants to be at the shootout and make saves and I like that.”
