GENEVA — José Mourinho has been charged by UEFA after being filmed aggressively cursing at the English match referee in a stadium garage after the Europa League final. UEFA says the Roma coach is charged for "insulting / abusive language against a match official" after losing to Sevilla in Budapest this week. Footage circulated Thursday of Mourinho approaching referee Anthony Taylor in the garage and calling him a "disgrace" with an expletive. Taylor and his family were later harassed and verbally abused by Roma fans at the airport in Budapest. UEFA also pledges to review operations to protect match officials.
