Manchester City's head coach Pep Guardiola remembered Jose Mourinho after qualifying for the top eight in the UEFA Champions League and said he was ready to thank his old friend.
Idman.Biz reports that the Spanish specialist recalled an interesting episode and said that he would definitely write to Jose.
"We were in the dressing room and we didn't know that Benfica needed one more goal to reach the next stage. That's why we were shouting at the goalkeeper: "Where are you running?! Stay in the goal! Madrid can score an equalizer and then we can stay out!", - he said.
Guardiola eventually approached the situation with humor and highly appreciated Mourinho's decision: "But it was Jose's good strategy - to score the fourth goal".
It should be noted that the goalkeeper of "Benfica" left his goal in the extension minutes of the game and scored a goal with his head against Real's goal during the penalty kick, thus writing his team's name in the play-off stage. His goal was also chosen as the goal of the day in the Champions League.
