'He needed to raise the temperature' - Mourinho defends Ramos over Messi collision


The former Real Madrid boss says the defender tried provoke a reaction in his team's favour.
Jose Mourinho accused Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos of deliberately hitting Lionel Messi before half-time during Saturday's Clasico at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Barcelona claimed a 1-0 first-half lead thanks Ivan Rakitic's delicate finish in the 26th minute but Mourinho felt the match lacked the customary intensity of European football's fiercest rivalry.

Ramos caught Messi with a flailing arm, leaving the Barcelona superstar prone on the turf before he confronted his opponent and protested to the referee - Alberto Undiano Mallenco, who decided no action was necessary.
