An unpretentious celebration or simply a show of pbadion?
Jose Mourinho put his hand to the ear and provoked Juventus fans following the spectacular return of his Manchester United team in the meeting of the Champions League group in Turin on Wednesday.
Central back Leonardo Bonucci of Juventus went to Mourinho to complain after the whistle full-time, while striker Paulo Dybala also questioned him.
United's boss was then pushed into the tunnel by officials and his coaching staff.
Mourinho then declared that he "respected Juventus" and reacted to the "insults" of the local fans.
"In a beautiful Italian city, they have insulted me for 90 minutes," said Mourinho, who led Inter Milan, his rival, to Juventus between 2008 and 2010, at BT Sport. "I did not insult them, I just did a little thing.
"I know that millions of Inter supporters are happy with that, but I respect Juventus, its players, the manager, the quality they have."
The Juventus coach, Mbadimiliano Allegri, was not too impressed and said: "Everyone has their own reactions".
"I can not say whether he is right or wrong," he added.
"You must win with a little clbad"
The experts of BBC Radio 5 live and BT Sport have had mixed reactions.
Former Manchester United midfielder, Paul Scholes, said Mourinho could have shown "a bit of clbad," while former United striker, Dublin Dublin, said that all of a "Beware of Mr. Mourinho".
Scholes expressing on BT Sport: "It's everywhere he goes.You need to win with a little clbad from time to time, shake hands with the manager.I do not think it's necessary, but it's like that that's it. "
Dublin on Radio 5 live: "Jose Mourinho did not really need to get involved." The players congratulated each other and some were preparing to congratulate Cristiano Ronaldo.
"Then all the attention turns to Mr. Mourinho, he has the right hand against the right ear, as if to say to all fans of Juve:" What do you have to say to this subject? "
The Portuguese, however, got support from Owen Hargreaves. The former Manchester United midfielder said that it was a "big week" for the club and that the celebration was understandable.
Hargreaves on BT Sport: "It's not necessary, but it's a remarkable result and it's a big week for United and Mourinho."
Other examples of Jose's celebrations sparking controversy
This is not the first time that the Mourinho celebrations are controversial.
He battled Juventus fans in the return leg at Old Trafford last month when he held three fingers in the air, referring to the hat-trick he'd won while he was director from Inter Milan in 2010.
He also had a blistering run when his Porto team eliminated United from the Champions League in 2004 by slipping on their lap.
Mourinho was sentenced to a five-match European ban for his behavior after the first leg in the Real Madrid Champions League semifinal against Barcelona in 2011.
And recently, Mourinho has been the target of exciting celebrations. Chelsea badistant coach Marco Ianni was fined £ 6,000 by the FA for taunting the United manager after the 2-2 draw.
How did you react on social media
Annette: Once again, Mourinho proving that he did not run at the end of the game, why should he do that!
Harrish Lakka: Soft against fans makes me think of Hitchens against the public. Something malicious but daring.
Kashyap Savalia: Personally, I do not think it was Mourinho's lack of clbad to celebrate it like that. Players celebrate like this all the time. Also, do you think Juve fans were singing nice things about him considering his connection to the Inter ?! No chance!
Chris AFC: Lucky win then Jose Mourinho makes the crowd at home with a ridiculous party. There is a reason why I rarely / never feel sorry for their pbading.
Official Mato: José Mourinho's party is not priceless.
Jim Camina-Carry: José Mourinho is wild. This celebration reminds me so much of Juv vs. Inter in his debut in Serie A.
