5 famous Mourinho controversies

#3 Poking at Vilanova

This is the first time was involved in a brawl during a match

Mourinho's stint at Real Madrid was not a smooth ride. His tenure with Los Blancos was accompanied by the rise of Pep Guardiola at Barcelona.

As a result, he was prone to criticism from the "Royal's" fanbase.

In his three year stint at Madrid, unarguably, the most highlighted moment was his "one-on-one" with Tito Vilanova.

The incident took place when both the teams were coming out of the tunnel before the commencement of a crucial Clasico game. Mourinho poked Vilanova in his eye.

This was the first occasion when Mourinho left the trail of verbal attacks and took up the unexplored path of physical ones!

This gave a furious start to an already intense game. The game infuriated several red cards, hence the game finished 3-2 in the favour of the Blaugranas.
