Madrid lost 1-0, and Mourinho was unhappy that his team had to play a day earlier than Barcelona, having played a day later than them in the Champions League in midweek.
“I try to be objective and fair when my team loses and try not to look for excuses,” said Mourinho afterwards.
“But it’s obvious that a player who plays on Wednesday shouldn’t play today. Other teams have more control over the schedule than we do.”
