The Biscione boss was less than pleased with the quality of officiating in their clash with the Red Devils...Inter were held to a goalless stalemate at home in the first leg of their Champions League tie with Manchester United on Tuesday night.
Sir Alex Ferguson's side had by far the better of the chances and would have returned to England with a healthy advantage but for an outstanding display from Julio Cesar in the Nerazzurri goal.
But Jose Mourinho reckons his side would have had much more joy were it not for Luis Medina Cantalejo, the Spanish match official, being too lenient on United.
"Maybe in the second game we will have a referee who is on our side," the Portuguese coach told reporters after the match.
"If we go to Old Trafford and we don't have the same referee - but we have one who will give the away team so much protection - then my team will get to the quarter-final."
Mourinho made reference to Inter's ignored penalty appeal after Adriano appeared to be hauled down by Rio Ferdinand at a corner, but he refused to dwell on single instances.
"I don't want to go into details of things like how we didn't have a penalty. Everything was against us, every little detail," the former Chelsea boss said.
"You watch how many free kicks they had and we had. The way we got yellow cards and they did not. I think the tendency was clear."
