Jose Mourinho speaks ...
“I’ve won five finals and I lost this one, but I’m coming back home proud again,” he tells Sky Sports Italia. “The boys gave everything. We are all attached to the shirt, to our nature. We take things seriously and humbly, we work a lot. Everyone reacts in a different way: one cries, the other doesn’t. The truth is that we are all very sad, with or without crying. Great match, great final – intense, vibrant.” Good lord.
Man of the match: Uefa have given the gong to Sevilla goalkeeper Bono. My vote goes to Anthony Taylor, who somehow managed to stay in control of the game despite constant harrassment from Roma’s players. I remain unconvinced that he was correct in overturning that penalty he awarded Sevilla but I’ll need to see it again.
