Jose Mourinho made a social media post about referees favouring Juventus with penalties during matches, The Sun.

The Roma boss claims the Bianconeri have been handed spot-kick decisions this season that are not worth it.

What Mourinho posted on Instagram

The Special One made a post on his Instagram handle as Jordan Veretout was about taking a penalty against Juventus and the other photo with Paulo Dybala retaking his spot-kick against Zenit St. Petersburg.

He captioned the post:

"One had to be retaken, one hadn’t… Guess which."

Roma and Juventus clashed at the Allianz Stadium in October as the former Italian champions defeated Mourinho's men by 1-0.

Tammy Abraham's goal was ruled out as referee daniel Osarto gave a foul and gave Roma a penalty instead.

Veretout took the ball from Abraham to take responsibility but Wojciech Szczesny made a brilliant save afterwards.

In another penalty incident noticed by Mourinho, Dybala had to retake his missed spot-kick against Zenit St. Petersburg after the referee claimed the goalkeeper's leg was on the line as the ball went wide.

With the development, Mourinho will have to wait and see if he would be punished by Italian FA and/or Uefa over his social media post.
