Mourinho Celebrates Roma Win In His 1000th Game As A Manager

 Portuguese coach, Jose Mourinho is on cloud nine following his achievement for securing his 1000th game as a manager.

Mourinho could not be more proud of his players for helping him reach that milestone few managers have ever attained.

He got 1000th career goal as a manager in a face-off against Sassuolo when El Shaarawy knocked in a volley deep into stoppage time to make him clench the achievement.

Some of the illustrious clubs he has coached include, Benfica, FC Porto, Chelsea, Internationale, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Tottenham, and Roma.

He granted a post-match interview where he talked about his 1000th game as a Manager.

In his words:

“During the week I was lying, even to myself (and to the players), by saying that this was not a special match. I was trying to convince myself of that.”

“It was a special match, with a special number for me; it was my 1000th game on the bench. I wanted to remember it for the rest of my life. I did not want to lose.”

“The game could have ended 6-6 or 7-7, they could have won 2-1 like we did. Rui Patricio made two or three incredible saves, we missed two chances in front of an empty goal. For a neutral it was an extraordinary match.”

“Today I did not feel 58 years old, I felt like I was 10, 12 or 14, my run was like a child. I apologised to (Sassuolo coach Alessio) Dionisi, they played a fantastic match and if they had won there would be no argument, they played well.”
