Pellegrini Declines Mourinho Handshake

[Folami David]

Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini walked straight down the players' tunnel without shaking hands with counterpart Jose Mourinho after Chelsea snatched a 90th-minute winner on Sunday.
.
Mourinho celebrated wildly by jumping into the crowd and embracing fans after a defensive mix-up allowed Fernando Torres to secure a 2-1 victory in the Premier League.
.
"I didn't shake hands. I didn't want to," Pellegrini told reporters at Stamford Bridge after his side suffered their third away league defeat of the season.
.
Mourinho apologised for his loss of decorum and said he was trying to find his son when he leapt into the crowd.
.
"If they feel I did something wrong I apologise," said the Portuguese. "This is the drama of the last minute.
.
"He (Pellegrini) lost the game in the last minute and I have sympathy with that. In other countries and cultures we shake hands before the game and that is it.
.
"If he was sad because of the result I understand. If he was sad because I did something wrong I accept that too."
.
Mourinho and Pellegrini have been rivals since the Portuguese replaced the Chilean at Real Madrid in 2010 following a second-place La Liga finish.
