Mourinho misses press conference after Real Madrid's win over Villarreal
Summary

José Mourinho did not attend the post-match press conference following Real Madrid's 1-0 victory over Villarreal on October 10. Reports suggest his absence stems from concerns that comments about officiating, particularly regarding Vinícius Júnior's red card, could lead to disciplinary action. While he reportedly aimed to protect his availability for upcoming La Liga matches against Sevilla and Barcelona, no official sanction has been confirmed. The circumstances surrounding Mourinho's decision raise questions about potential repercussions as Real Madrid prepares for its next Champions League fixture against Roma.
