An Indian citizen carried out an action that went viral on social networks from the notice that published in a newspaper to send a message to José Mourinho, Tottenham Hotspurs coach following the team’s 1-0 loss to Brighton in the Premier League.
The fan, a citizen of Nueva Dehli, bet on that result with the goal of Leandro Trossard and won five pounds (5,660 euros) in the Fantasy5, but ended up using that money to mock the Portuguese coach himself with a message he published in the Anfield Indepedents newspaper.
“Dear Jose. This ad has been paid for with the 5,000 pounds I earned from Spurs’ loss to Brighton. Here’s a special trophy * as a thank you. Sahil. New Delhi, India. * It could be the only one you win this season.
The ad that an Indian fan published in a newspaper for José Mourinho.
The party from which the ad was derived
Tottenham, without Harry Kane and with Gareth Bale as the starter, was defeated at Amex Stadium by Brighton (1-0), supported by the Spanish goalkeeper Robert Sánchez, to seal a victory that took the locals away from relegation.
Jose Mourinho’s set suffered his second loss in a row and is still out of the European positions he had within reach after the defeat against Liverpool in West Ham.
He was able to tie the London box on several occasions. Especially in a shot by Carlos Vinicius who ran into Robert Sánchez, architect of the victory of the Graham Potter painting.
Brighton, which marks the border of permanence in the Premier, protected the goal obtained by the Belgian Leandro Trossard after a quarter of an hour passed by the German Pascal Gross.
Tottenham, without Harry Kane, injured, and with an attacking trident consisting of Son Heung-Min, Gareth Bale and Steven Bergwijn were unable to score.

Mourinho, in fact, withdrew Bale at game time and took out Brazilian Lucas Moura in his place. Nothing worked and Tottenham left empty and out of Europe while Brighton distanced themselves seven points from relegation.
Mourinho trusts that Kane can return next week
The Tottenham Hotspur coach also trusted that Harry Kane may be back next week after injuring his ankle a few days ago.
The English striker was not present for his team’s defeat against Brighton & Hove Albion and will not arrive in time either to face Chelsea on Thursday.
“He is happy with the evolution”, said the Portuguese at a press conference before taking on the team of Thomas Tuchel.
“At first we were a bit scared by what happened, but now we are much more positive. Next week we play Everton on weekdays and Manchester City over the weekend. I think I should be back for one of those games, “he added.

Without Kane, Mourinho opted to play Heung-min Son as a false ‘nine’ and Gareth Bale on the right wing, but the experiment did not work and the team was defeated against Brighton.
