UEFA began disciplinary proceedings on Friday against AS Roma coach Jose Mourinho for using insulting and abusive language against the referee in the Europa League final against Sevilla.

Mourinho was filmed repeatedly calling English referee Anthony Taylor a "disgrace" in a profanity-laced tirade in the stadium car park in Budapest after Wednesday's final, which Roma lost in a penalty shootout.
