The Special One admitted he could have reacted differently to the insults aimed at him that came from Juventus' supporters.

Jose Mourinho spoke right after the game between Juventus and Manchester United, where the Red Devils claimed a comeback win in the last five minutes thanks to a free kick goal by Juan Mata and an own goal by Alex Sandro.

What really stood out was Mourinho's reaction after the game as he cupped his right hand behind his ear, in what seemed to be a provocative gesture aimed at Juventus' fans.

As expected, Juventus' players reacted furiously toward the Portuguese boss. Nevertheless, if Mou's claims are true, his actions might be understandable to some people.

"I was insulted 90 minutes and I'm just here doing my work. I was insulted, my family was insulted, and I did the gesture meaning I wanted to hear more songs now. They also insulted my Inter family," Mourinho said.

But even if he got a bit carried away, Mourinho revealed he should have overlooked this incident.

"However, now, outside the heat of the moment, I wouldn't have done what I did. Let's look forward," Mourinho said.

"I didn't insult them, I just made a little thing. I respect Juventus, I respect their players, their manager. I'm really really proud of my boys," he added.

Manchester United's hopes for survival in the UEFA Champions League will most likely be determined by their ability -or lack there of- to beat Valencia on Matchday 6 of the competition. Their next match will see the Red Devils hosting Switzerland's Young Boys on November 27.
