Real Madrid manager José Mourinho does not attend the post-match press conference following the team’s 1-0 La Liga win over Villarreal. Multiple outlets link his absence to an incident involving Vinícius Júnior, including hair-pulling, that results in Vinícius receiving a red card.
Reports say Mourinho stays away after what is described as a tense moment and/or anger from the match events, leaving reporters waiting as he boycotts the media session. One outlet adds that the lack of participation may raise questions about potential disciplinary action, noting that Mourinho’s decision could have consequences depending on league or club procedures.
While outlets agree on the match outcome, Vinícius’s dismissal, and the missed press appearance, the emphasis differs: some focus on Mourinho’s reported reaction and the practical impact on media, while others highlight that his absence could trigger a separate ban or formal review.
