The YouTube page 'EA Sports FC Korea' released, on Tuesday, the second part of an extensive interview with José Mourinho, in which he recalled the historic conquest of the Champions League, in 2010, at the helm of the Champions League.
The Portuguese coach focused, above all, on the victory over Barcelona, in the semi-finals, by an aggregate score of 3-2, but stressed that, contrary to what many think, this feat was not due, exclusively, to the way he stopped Lionel Messi: "It's not true. The secret was to score three goals against them".
"We played a fantastic game. People focus on the second game, but the secret was the first game. We beat Barcelona, 3-1. They were winning every game. They went to Milan and lost, 3-1", he began by saying.
"Messi is still, but, at that time, he was that incredible player. We had a strategy and two Argentinian players who knew him better than anyone, from the national team, Zanetti and Cambiasso. Messi played more on the right side, he had Zanetti in front of him", he continued.
"When he came more inside, he had Cambiasso in front of him. Both formed a small cage to surround him, but not for Messi individually. Whenever I played against Messi... I was lucky or unlucky enough to do it several times. It's very difficult", he added.
