Chelsea assistant coach Rui Faria lost his cool last night after referee Mike Dean’s decision to award Sunderland a late penalty which eventually turned out to be the winner in the Chelsea’s 2-1 defeat at Stamford Bridge. Faria has been known to be very close to Mourinho, and has been working with him since his early Porto days.

Faria was sent off for his outburst at the referee, and had to be pulled away by Mourinho.

“I want to congratulate [referee] Mike Dean,” Mourinho later said in his post-match interview. “I think his performance was unbelievable and when referees have unbelievable performances I think it’s fair, as managers, we give them this. It was a fantastic performance, he came here with one objective, the objective to make a fantastic performance, and he did that.”
