The analysis of the Giallorossi coach after the victory the against Sheriff: “It’s always like this with Renato Sanchez, noboddy can understand him.”
“We were horrible in the first half, individually and collectively: we lacked aggressiveness, we were too slow, and had no control over the game. We scored a miraculous goal to go ahead without deserving it. However, in the second half, I liked how we controled the game, I liked the goal that we scored, and I like the fact that we could have scored more. In the end, we deserved the victory.”
Renato Sanches had to request a substitution after less than half an hour, due to another muscular problem. Mourinho commented lke this:
“Renato Sanches needs to play, with high rhythm and intensity. Unfortunately, Renato is like this, prone to injuries, a great player that we find hard to understand. Bayern Munich couldn’t figure him out, and neither could PSG. In the last game, he played for 45 minutes and seemed fine. Today, he was super ready, but during the match, he felt something and had to stop. We will see about his condition in the following days”
