Pepe can be punished if he is found to be guilty of stamping on Messi - Jose Mourinho
Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has accepted full responsibility for his side's 2-1 defeat to Barcelona in the Copa del Rey at the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday, Goal.com reported.
"The responsibility is mine, especially when my team loses. Victory has many fathers; defeat only one. I've been in football a long time and I understand this. The cup final victory we all celebrated, but in defeat I am the only parent."
Mourinho also revealed Pepe could be punished if he is found to be guilty of stamping on Lionel Messi.
"I have not seen what Pepe did," he claimed. "I have to watch it. Pepe did a great job for the team but if something happened, I didn't see it. However, if it was intended, obviously, it is punishable."
