The Roma derby will take place tonight (Saturday) at the Olimpico, but the winds are still raging earlier following an antisemitic poster hung by Lazio fans against Jose Mourinho, who will be Roma coach next season.

The Portuguese signed a contract in Rome earlier this month, just over a week after he was sacked from English side Tottenham, and a sign hung on a bridge in the northern part of the city read: "Yesterday Tottenham, today Rome ... tomorrow Maccabi".

Apart from Maccabi, Tottenham and Roma are also identified with the Jews, and in Italy every sign refers to an antisemitic incident.

This announcement was removed almost immediately, but of course they managed to document it and the photos are running on social media.
