Jose Mourinho can't help trying to reignite Pep Guardiola rivalry with pointed Roma message

Jose Mourinho has moved to reignite his long-standing rivalry with Pep Guardiola after guiding Roma to this season’s Europa League final.

Mourinho masterminded the Italian club’s first European trophy in over 60 years as they won last season’s Conference League in his first campaign in Rome. The Portuguese coach has now overseen the Giallorossi’s to this season’s showpiece of Europe’s secondary competition, where they will play Sevilla.

Roma – 1-0 up from the first leg – frustrated Bayer Leverkusen in Thursday’s goalless second leg in Germany. The Italian side had just one shot, not in target, throughout the match compared to the Bundesliga outfit’s 29 efforts while Roma had a meagre 28 percent of possession.
