The “second” yellow
During the penultimate group stage match against Ajax in the 2010 UEFA Champions League, Real Madrid were in cruise control, comfortably leading 4-0. With the knockout stages looming, Mourinho asked two of his premier players Xabi Alonso and Sergio Ramos, to pick up a second tactical yellow that would rule them out of the last group stage match. This would ensure that they would be available for the knockout stage matches as they would have already served their one match suspension. Mourinho was fined £33,500 by UEFA for his actions.
