Mourinho Key In Europa League Final — Roma Legend, Totti

Roma legend Francesco Totti is confident the club can beat Sevilla in the Europa League final.

The Galliorosi will face Sevilla in the final in Budapest on Wednesday night..

Totti believes Mourinho can make the difference for his former club.

“I suppose Sevilla have more experience in these finals. I think they’ve played in six finals and won all six. So, sooner or later, with a bit of luck, they’re going to lose,” Totti told the UEFA website.

“And with Mourinho in charge, we have this fantastic opportunity. He’s a coach with a lot of experience in these kinds of games, so he will meet the challenge in the best possible way to make the team come out on top.

“With this kind of coach, who has this strong personality, everything is easier. These kinds of coaches are used to winning, so they can pass on this winning mentality to the team – and I think that’s what he’s doing.”

Totti also said of Mourinho: “I talk to him quite often. I played against him as a coach, but I would have loved to have him as a coach. Unfortunately, he had other opportunities, and he chose different clubs.”
