Jose Mourinho: Coppa Italia is the worst tournament in Europe

Roma head coach Jose Mourinho, who beat Genoa in the 1/8 finals of the Coppa Italia (1:0), expressed his opinion about the tournament.

“I would like to win the Coppa Italia. Once I won it playing against Roma. But I would like to win it by playing Roma in Rome. But I think that this is the worst tournament in Europe, because it does not protect less famous teams. There is no show here. Torino, having beaten the Italian champion Milan on his field, must play the next relegation game on the road. I don't understand this structure of the Coppa Italia.

Torino beat the Italian champions, but they have to play away. Where is the beauty of the Coppa Italia? It would be good to play on the pitch of a Serie B or Serie C team. People love it,” Mourinho said in a Football Italia comment.
