According to L'Équipe, José Mourinho will not be on Benfica’s bench at Real Madrid on Wednesday at 21:00, as he is suspended. The tie will be played at the Santiago Bernabéu.
The play-off first leg ended 1-0 to Madrid. Mourinho was suspended for that game.
Assistant coach Joao Tralhao addressed the media on Tuesday and reiterated Mourinho’s absence.
He said it would inevitably be a different match without Mourinho on the touchline.
At the start of the briefing, the club’s press officer said no questions on the Vinicius - Prestianni affair would be accepted.
