#5 Mario Balotelli throwing away his Inter shirt
While presenting Kenyan midfielder, McDonald Mariga, Jose Mourinho took a sly dig at Mario Balotelli, claiming that the Kenyan has “millions of brain cells, so he works hard in training,” while “some at Inter have only one.”
He might not have mentioned any name, but it was obvious that he was talking about the volatile Italian. Mario Balotelli was supposed to be the next best thing from Italian football. Indeed, even he himself once claimed that only Lionel Messi is better than him.
Of course, it was nothing more than just trash-talking like we boys did back in kindergarten, but the former Milan striker did really have a lot of talent, however, he lacked the attitude to make use of it. And this moment perfectly depicts that as, in a rush or blood to his head, he threw the Inter shirt on the floor after winning the semi-final tie against Barcelona.
Apparently, it was because he didn’t play enough minutes.
