The Special One Delivers
Has football Italy at his feet: World Class Coach Jose Mourinho
Ten men Internazionale Milan ejected favourites Barcelona tonight with an aggregate 3-2 score, despite having one man unfairly sent off early on by Barcelona's strongest field player - the French referee. But even 12 Barcelona men failed miserably to break the Italian defence dam, vigorously boosted by a Jose Mourinho at the sidelines. Finally, after 95 minutes of play, the moment of triumph for the Special One has come, and even hysterical UEFA officials could not prevent the triumphant coach to storm onto the field towards the tribune of the Inter fans.
Echoes of Old Trafford as Jose Mourinho sprints on to the pitch in Catalonia and runs over to the small band of Inter Milan fans right at the top of the stand at the Camp Nou. He stands there, arms aloft as only the Special One could do. Barca keeper Victor Valdes is furious with Mourinho - sour grapes! - but it's handbags at best. Some of the Barca players are in whimpy tears. As the Inter players celebrate on the Camp Nou pitch, someone turned the sprinklers on. Why can't clubs who lose these semi-finals just lose them with good grace? Another point - Barca wanted a wet surface after last week's dry pitch in Milan, but a lot of their players were slipping enough tonight.
On May 22nd Inter will face some German team in the Bernabeau Stadium of Madrid for Jose Mourinho's coronation as the king of all coaches that ever lived. No exaggerating there!
