Jose Mourinho produced printed out images of controversial incidents in a derby rant after Real Madrid fell to Atletico Madrid.

Mourinho hit out at the officials following his side’s 2-1 defeat to Atletico Madrid, claiming Diego Simeone ’s side could have had two red cards in the first half.

The pressure increases on Mourinho, with the result following a 1-0 loss to Real Betis earlier in September to leave them six points off leaders Barcelona.

"We can skip the press conference because the story of the match is right here," Mourinho said, while flagging the pieces of paper with the images and screenshots of the moments he was aggrieved by.

"Those were two clear red cards. Given the difficulties we faced afterwards playing 11 against 10, we can only imagine what 50 minutes of 11 against nine would have been like.

"So I'll just have to limit myself to hugging my players, who gave it their all and played a first half, showed great class and character, setting us up perfectly to win the second half."

Mourinho then added that he hoped the decisions were merely mistakes before praising his side’s cohesion.

"I want to believe they are simply mistakes, just as a coach makes mistakes, just as a player makes mistakes," he said.
