Jose Mourinho no longer thinks about first place

The words of Jose Mourinho

José Mourinho spoke after the home defeat against Betis Sevilla: “They have more technical quality than us, more authority. It is easy to recognize that they with the ball between their feet are of another technical level. We had many opportunities to score, but we made too many mistakes and a draw would have been the most logical result for the way the match was going. Defense? There was some passivity, but these are mistakes due more to fatigue than anything else.

“Zaniolo? I didn’t see anything, but the assistant was there in front and saw something. Too bad he didn’t see another yellow for Pezzella who would have been sent off. Sevilla? I think right now thinking about finishing first is not the goal, they have 9 points and they also play at home against Helsinki. We have to finish second with the risk of catching an important team relegating from the Champions League,” he concluded.
