The Blues lost 3-0 to Werder Bremen in the final game of their European pre-season tour. Jose Mourinho blamed the Referee Harm Osmers, from Hannover, who gave two soft penalties to the home side – one for a handball by John Terry and another for a Nathan Ake last-ditch tackle.

"I learned nothing from this game,’ Mourinho said. "We were expecting a fast game a competitive game but we come here and the referee thought this was a circus for Bremen fans – for them to have fun - and he killed the match." He added. ‘I like the Werder Bremen team - they are fast, intense and they defend with a lot of people. The opponent is perfect for is to compete today but we couldn't play.’ Mourinho said.

Werder Bremen's Ludovic Obraniak scored a brilliant glancing header against Chelsea. Chelsea often found their attacks broken up by the referee’s whistle and struggled to create chances.‘Every foul, he gave a free kick against us to stop the game - and when we had advantage he stopped the game for a free kick which stopped us playing.
The penalties, especially the last one, were nonsense. I am disappointed with that because we want to train and the referee didn't let us have a good session". Mourinho added. Mourinho later told Chelsea TV: 'The referee gave the penalty against Ake to finish his job in this beautiful party because it was a beautiful party for Werder Bremen.'When the referee behaves this one did, this is not a friendly anymore.'
