Jose Mourinho said he felt like a child when charging from his dugout to celebrate Stephan El Shaarawy’s last-gasp winner in a thrilling 2-1 victory over Sassuolo, which put his side top of Serie A in his 1,000th match as a manager.
Italy international El Shaarawy struck with a sublime curling strike in the 91st minute which led to wild celebrations at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, with Mourinho running to join his joyous players in front of screaming supporters behind the goal.

“It was a match that could have finished 6-6, 7-7, they could have won 2-1 as we did,” added Mourinho.
“In the final 20 minutes Rui Patricio made two or three incredible saves, we missed chances practically in front of an open goal. I think that for the neutral it was an incredible match.”
Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo says despite the activities of the “forces of hate and evil”, the church will overcome. He made this known on Sunday, at the dedication of the new […]
