“They have a good coach — I like him very much. We expected them to make runs behind our back, stretching the field. So we decided to play with four defenders. They also did not use their usual system. There were several factors that led us to return to playing with four defenders. They defended with five, and players like Zubkov and Pedro Malheiro could have created problems for us. It was a good match. The first half was very even,” — quotes Mourinho the Telegram channel “Vzbіrna” referring to A Spor.
