LONDON (Reuters) - Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho accused his midfielder Eden Hazard on Friday of "not sacrificing himself 100 per cent" for his team mates, two days after their Champions League semi-final exit.

Hazard, 23, Chelsea's principal playmaker following the sale of Juan Mata to Manchester United, appeared to risk his coach's wrath when he criticised Mourinho's tactics in their 3-1 semi-final second leg defeat by Atletico at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday.
