Jose Mourinho in tears after making history with Roma’s Europa Conference League win

Jose Mourinho could not hold back the tears after collecting his Europa Conference League winner’s medal following Roma’s 1-0 victory over Feyenoord in Tirana on Wednesday night.

The self-proclaimed Special One was looking to end Roma’s 14-year wait for a trophy and also make history as the first manager to win all of Uefa’s major European trophies, having already emerged victorious in the Champions League, Europa League and Uefa Cup.

The Portuguese coach has a perfect record in European finals, having overseen five wins in five finals with Porto, Inter, Manchester United and now Roma.

He also becomes only the second manager after the legendary Giovanni Trapattoni to win five major European titles.
