Mourinho and Lampard exchanged strong words shortly after Timo Werner gave the visitors a 1-0 lead in the first half.

However, Erik Lamela equalized for Spurs late in the game and the tie had to be decided by spot kicks.

Each side converted their first four kicks, until Mason Mount missed for Chelsea.

Speaking about his spat with his former player after the game, Mourinho told Sky Sports:

“With Frank, the most important thing is my feelings towards him rather than any words we exchanged… He always gave me everything he had as a player and I will never forget that.

“My feelings towards him will always be feelings of how much I owe him for how much of an incredible player and friend he was. The only thing I was telling him, just an opinion of an old coach to a young talented coach, which was when the players need us, it is when they are losing. When they are winning we don’t need to be the protagonists of the touchline, we need to be there when they are losing.

“In the last match when they were losing 3-0 [against West Brom] I felt really sorry for him because he was sad and quiet in his chair. In terms of football, I can’t teach him anything. He knows football, it is just an opinion, stay on the touchline when your team is losing and stay calm when your team is winning.”

We gathered a council member of 7 members unanimously suspended the Chairman for 14 months, a duration that corresponds with the expiration of his tenure. The suspension is effective 31st October 2020.

Finally, the councillors passed a vote of confidence on the council’s vice chairman Alh. Sagir AbdulKadir Panshekara to take over the activity of the council pending the conclusion of the investigation against the embattled chairman.

In a letter of suspension approved by the speaker of the council, Yusuf Ibrahim, “the action of the legislative arm of the council is sequel to the power vested on its as contained in part IV item (14)(1) of the Kano State local government Law 2006”, which recommends the removal or suspension of Chairman of the council.
