"That's the worst situation I've dealt with in terms of abuse,"
"Not only because I was travelling with family members at the time, but it also highlights the impact of people's behaviour on others. Even in a match like that, where there was actually no major mistakes in the game."
"For me, that's a great source of disappointment, frustration, anger. Why that's acceptable, I don't know - because I'm sure those individuals wouldn't like somebody to turn around and say that to them or their own children."
"It makes you reflect back on whether you made a mistake travelling with your family in the first place. They haven't been to one [match] since."
A confrontation occurred in the Puskas Arena car park after Roma lost to Sevilla on penalties, during which Jose Mourinho verbally abused referee Anthony Taylor. UEFA imposed a four-match ban and a 47,300 fine on Mourinho following the incident. Taylor was travelling with family members at the time and described the episode as the worst abuse he had experienced, noting that there were no major mistakes in the match. The incident caused personal distress, led Taylor's family to stop attending matches, and Taylor felt the behaviour likely influenced subsequent fan abuse.
