Fifa World Cup 2014: Mourinho Reopens Rift With Pepe After Portugal Red Card

Fifa World Cup 2014: Mourinho Reopens Rift With Pepe After Portugal Red Card Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has hit back at his former Real Madrid star Pepe, after the Portuguese centre-back was sent off during the first half of their opening World Cup game against Germany for headbutting Thomas Muller. Even though Portugal were already losing 2-0, Pepe's red card left his team with no chance of securing even a point from the game and eventually they suffered a humiliating 4-0 defeat. The Portuguese boss left the Santiago Bernabeu last summer after falling out with a number of Real Madrid stars including Pepe, who lost his place in the starting line-up after questioning Mourinho's decision to bench Iker Casillas. Mourinho has now seized the chance to criticise his former defender, blaming him for the Portugal defeat and seizing upon the fact that he was born in Brazil.
