– Have you EVER seen anything like it!?Maurizio Sarri tries to substitute Kepa Arrizabalaga for Willy Caballero, but Kepa refuses to come off and Sarri is absolutely FURIOUS! pic.twitter.com/Q81v6ry3Kk— Sky Sports Football (@SkyFootball) February 24, 2019“I dont like that he leaves his coach and the assistant coach [Gianfranco Zola] in a situation of great fragility. It saddens me for them,” Mourinho, who lost his job at Stamford Bridge in 2016 said.“Luckily I never had to go through this.”Both manager and player have played down the incident, which has left many in the game stunned.Im telling you the truth it was a misunderstanding,” Sarri told talkSPORT. I understood that he had cramp so we needed to change because I didnt want a goalkeeper with cramp in the penalty shoot-out.”
