From the source
Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho spoke to the media after his team’s second successive Champions League comeback, this time against AEK Athens, in a 3-2 win on Wednesday night.
He was asked about the way in which these comebacks happen, to which he said: “We won the first game in the last minute. Of course, I prefer to win more comfortably, but these games won in the final minutes… only we can win them.
We’re always in the right place when it matters. And if we do it, it’s because we all feel we can. I’m very lucky to have players of this quality.
