Amazingly, Jose Mourinho decided to remove recent addition Houssem Aouar last night. He used all his substitutes and decided to finish the game with ten men. The admirable act was made as his Roma team was playing Partizani Tirana in a preseason match, which they would go on to win 2-1.

The Special One, however, made the difficult decision to play out the game without their one-man edge. After making the first eight of his allotted substitutions, Mourinho substituted Aouar, a former Lyon midfielder, in the 79th minute.

Tirana was in control of the ball at the back when the Portuguese manager called the confused-looking new player to the sidelines. He gave the 25-year-old his arm and explained to the Algerian international why he would no longer be participating in games. The celebrity kept moving towards the seats in the dugout.

Partizani manager Zoran Zekic made a mistake earlier in the game when he attempted to replace a player for one he had previously taken off. The officials disallowed, leaving the hosts with 10 men. In order to balance the playing field and play 10 players each, Mourinho chose to replace Aouar later in the game.
