Mourinho: I have won the Champions League twice, but this will not put any pressure on our opponents

August 27th August 28th 03:00, in the second leg of the Champions League playoffs this season, Fenerbahce will play against Benfica away (the two sides drew 0-0 in the first leg), Fenerbahce coach Mourinho was interviewed before the game.

Will Fenerbahce be affected by Benfica's home atmosphere?

My team will not be negatively affected by the atmosphere at home in Benfica. Of course, the enthusiasm of Benfica fans is a factor that cannot be ignored, but Fenerbahce will not be disturbed by this.

About Benfica coach Bruno Lager

I have a good impression of Bruno, and he also respects my career as a coach. Bruno is an excellent coach with extensive experience. Although he has never coached a giant team like Benfica before, the timing is right for him to take over Benfica at this stage of his career. I wish him all the best in the future, of course, this blessing does not include tomorrow's competition.

About the importance of tomorrow's game

Tomorrow's game is for our club, which means a lot to millions of Fenerbahce fans, but it cannot be simply defined as a game that "determines my career success or failure". I will not classify tomorrow's game as the "top five important" events in my coaching career.

Regarding Fenerbahce, some new players are unable to participate in tomorrow's game

They are unable to play according to the rules.

About Fenerbahce's lineup may be arranged tomorrow's game

In my opinion, (Benfica coach) Bruno has many options for placing troops, and he is a "happy coach" - he has a group of very talented players under his command. In contrast, it is much easier to analyze Fenerbahce's tactics and predict what kind of lineup we will line up. To be honest, our choice is actually not very good.

Will your previous brilliant coaching career put pressure on Benfica?

Although I have won the Champions League twice, I don't think it will put any pressure on my opponent, especially at a stage like the Champions League play-off, I feel that past honors will not have an additional impact on tomorrow's game.
