Mourinho on win over Nacional: This is Benfica, f...! | OneFootball

José Mourinho is known for his euphoric celebrations in some of his matches — a situation that happened again during Benfica’s visit to Nacional on the afternoon of last Saturday, November 29, where the Special One could not contain his excitement after Iancu Vasilica’s final whistle.

According to the newspaper A Bola, the Setúbal-born coach unleashed all his joy and frustration after a match that was anything but easy for the red and white team. At the end of the game, after the Eagles completed their comeback, José Mourinho celebrated the result in an exuberant manner.

"This is Benfica, d...!" the Portuguese coach is reported to have said in footage captured by Sport TV, moments after the end of the match. Along with his words, José Mourinho celebrated with his fist in the air, a clear sign of satisfaction with what he had just witnessed on the Choupana pitch.

"We didn’t allow Nacional to create any dangerous situations. We always played in the opponent’s half, the team was very organized. When we lost the ball, the team was very organized in recovering and didn’t allow Nacional any kind of counter-attack," pointed out the Special One in the post-match press conference.

After expressing his satisfaction, José Mourinho did not go to the locker room and made a point of greeting the players on the pitch. With this result, Benfica equals Sporting in the league table and is now three points behind Porto. However, their rivals still have to play their respective matches of the 12th round.
