Barcelona fullback Alves: Real Madrid coach Mourinho too negative

Barcelona fullback Daniel Alves has taken aim at Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho after victory in the Super Copa. Alves felt last week's all-in brawl was inspired by Mourinho.

"You always have to be super-calm in a game like that, because there's intensity in your heart and you can make mistakes," he told Barca TV.

"If you have a negative model, you do negative things. If you have a positive model, like Guardiola, who says positive things, who says you have to onto the pitch to compete and play football, it's much better."
