Real Madrid vs Benfica: now we know where José Mourinho watched the match from

Suspended for the decisive Real Madrid vs Benfica clash in the Champions League play-off second leg, José Mourinho watched the match from the Portuguese club’s team bus.

The Portuguese coach did not attend the Champions League play-off second leg between Real Madrid and Benfica from the stands (2-1). The "Special One" followed the game in an especially unorthodox way. According to El Chiringuito, José Mourinho watched the match from inside Benfica’s team bus.

Parked inside the Bernabéu’s parking lot, the Lisbon team’s bus became his vantage point, in an atmosphere that was reportedly tense around the stadium. This unusual scene inevitably sparked plenty of reactions, as the former Madrid boss found himself far removed from the limelight and the pitch.
