Energy at Stamford Bridge tonight as Benfica head coach Jose Mourinho returns to his former stomping ground for a high-stakes Champions League clash against the Blues. Fans from Colombo to Cebu are tuning in! ⚽️
At the pre-match press conference, Mourinho didn't hold back: "Of course I will always be a blue. I'm part of their history and they are part of my history," he said, also admitting, "And now I am in Benfica and I am very, very happy," before emphasising the big responsibility. "Benfica is a huge responsibility… I just love it. Let's go tomorrow."
The Portuguese coach signed a two-year contract in September and has started strongly with two wins and one draw in his first three games. But Chelsea holds a 2-0 advantage from previous Champions League meetings back in 2011-12.
