Jose Does The Hokey Pokey

We expect all Spanish “Classico” matches between Real Madrid andBarcelonato be bad-tempered and fiery affairs.

But this year’s second leg of the pre-season Supercopa was “extra-hot”.

It was unnecessarily  violent and definitely not becoming of one of the greatest football coaches in the modern game.

Still it happened and funny in almost a Three Stooges/slapstick way and with Jose “Groucho” Mourinho grabbing all the attention. Again.

After seeing his team lose the match 3-2 in a game when three players were red-carded in a wild on-field fracas, Madrid coach Mourinho calmly strolled over to assistant Barcelona coach Tito Vilanova and thumb-poked him in eye…and then just nonchalantly walked away.

What can be even more amusing?

In the post-match press conference, “Groucho”  claimed he had never even heard of Tito Vilanova!

Weird and almost surreal.
