In press conferences, Jose Mourinho never disappoints. On this occasion, the curious remark he made when asked about Paulo Gazzaniga's good performance shocked every and the Portuguese coach compared him to his own father.
Tottenham went away with three points in one of the most difficult places in the Premier League. A big part of the blame goes to the goalkeeper, who made some great stops before Vertonghen got the late equaliser in added time.
Questioned about him in the press conference, it seemed that Mou was limited to two words. "Magic hands," he said. However, he also started to tell a family anecdote.
"My father played in this stadium against Wolves, in the UEFA Cup, as a goalkeeper. He always told me that a big team's goalkeeper had to be different to the rest. Because he should not have to make ten stops. Only one, but when it comes, the magic hands must appear. And Paulo did this for us in a difficult moment, at 1-1," the Portuguese coach stated.
Due to this, he also considered him as respnsible for winning the game as Vertonghen: "This stop was very important for Paulo and for us; after this, we could put ourselves in a position to win the game."
Jose Mourinho also had words of praise for the opponents. Specifically, for Wolves' goalscorer, Adama Traore.
