"Talking about Benfica’s physical condition being better sounds like an excuse. We analyzed the game properly and made the necessary decisions," Mourinho told reporters.
In the Champions League standings, Benfica is ranked 25th with 6 points. Jose Mourinho’s team faces limited chances to qualify for the playoffs, as in January, Benfica will have to play against strong teams like Juventus and Real Madrid.
