Jose Mourinho found himself in the center of attention during Roma's thrilling late victory against Monza in Serie A on Sunday. The drama unfolded when Stephan El Shaarawy's last-minute goal secured all three points for Roma, prompting Mourinho to mock Monza's bench.
His actions led to a red card for the Portuguese coach, capping a match that stretched into the 100th minute.

Nicolas Viola seemed to have secured the win for Cagliari with a late 88th-minute goal, only for Dia to convert from the spot in the fifth minute of added time. This result leaves Cagliari at the bottom of the table with three points, one position ahead of Salernitana, who have one point more.
Bologna managed a 2-1 victory over Frosinone at home, with Lewis Ferguson and Lorenzo De Silvestri finding the net within just three minutes. Matias Soule scored for the visitors on the 63rd minute, narrowing the deficit.
However, Bologna secured the win as Luca Mazzitelli was sent off in added time. Bologna now occupies seventh place, while Frosinone is in 12th. Meanwhile, Atalanta defeated Genoa 2-0, with Ademola Lookman scoring on the 68th minute, and Atalanta adding another goal deep into injury time through Ederson.
