Roma coach Mourinho delighted after victory over Trabzonspor | OneFootball

Roma coach Jose Mourinho was delighted with their Europa Conference League qualifying victory over Trabzonspor.

Mourinho was very happy to see the team qualify for the group stage of the UEFA Europa Conference League with a 5-1 win on aggregate over the Turkish side.

“I liked the mentality," Mourinho told Sky Italia after the match. “Even though at some point the team had some difficulties, because the opponent was good.

“The people understood that there's a spirit, a way of thinking about the play and the club, and I liked this.

“It's a shame that a team like Trabzonspor won't even play in the Conference. This is a Europa League team and it's a shame for them, because they have quality.

“At the beginning of the second half, if Rui Patricio doesn't make that save, the game changes.

“We must have the humility to understand that this result is above all a reflection of the last 15 minutes and not 90, because it's a heavy result for them.

“It's very important to know how to play in difficulty too, it's easy when you dominate, even from an emotional point of view. When you are in difficulty, you must resist. Having a goalkeeper who didn't come to visit the city is important. That save allowed us to resist the difficulty, then we have the quality to know how to come out on the counterattack even if the reality of the match is different."
