Portuguese coach Jose Mourinho, Roma coach, received a red card late in his team’s 2-2 draw with its guest Hellas Verona in the Italian League, as Roma needed two young substitutes to make up for its two-goal drawback.
Antonin Barak and Adrian Tamesi scored in the first 20 minutes for the visiting team, whose goal was canceled by the video referee for offside in the first half as well.
Fortunately, 18-year-old Christian Vulpato left the bench in the second half and scored within three minutes, scoring his first goal in only his second appearance for Roma’s first team.
That was before fellow substitute Eduardo Bove, 19, equalized in a similarly efficient manner six minutes before the end of normal time.
