Talking of things that are very Mourinho; winning your first trophy as Madrid manager after keeping Barcelona scoreless for 120 minutes is pretty up there.
Although his Los Blancos side often broke free of the defensive tactics he’s best known for, this was a pure Mourinho masterclass, defined by nullifying the opposition and allowing one man to step up with the winner.
Ronaldo hung in the air and steered a perfect header into the net, scoring the only goal of the game in extra time to take home the silverware. It set Mourinho in motion for a total of three trophies with the club and a record-breaking 2011-12, in which his side set La Liga records for most points (100), most wins (32) and most goals (124).
