Tempers flared in last Sunday's 0-0 draw between Roma and a passionate Mourinho was shown a red card for his misdemeanours.

And then the ex-Manchester United boss got escorted from the pitch for sarcastically applauding officials for his sending off, resulting in his ban against Cagliari.

While Roma romped to a 2-1 victory over the Serie A minnows, Mourinho spent his time casually indulging in food from a silver container with a can of Coke to wash it down.

The food and result seemed to go down well with Mourinho, who was dressed in a black body warmer and white Adidas trainers, and he spoke about both in an Instagram post that captured his uncomfortable dining experience.

And although he didn't get to see it personally, Mourinho was also over the moon about 18-year-old starlet Ohene Afena Gyan Felix's debut for his team.

The 58-year-old quipped: "Game over… 3 points… Nice food (can't go to dressing room) and one more kid Ohene Afena Gyan Felix."

Mourinho's nonchalant response to the ban proved to be a hit among Roma fans who seemed to be amused by his relaxed demeanour.

The Portuguese tactician also showed his humorous side on the social media platform when he was initially disciplined against Napoli.

Upon receiving his marching orders in the heated contest, an undeterred Mourinho was captured trying to scale a fence to wave instructions to his players from behind a club billboard.

Posting the video to his own Instagram account, Mourinho added a cheeky caption.

It read: "When you have no ticket and you desperately want to watch a great football game."
