Jose Mourinho remains on course to become the first manager to win the UEFA Europa Conference League after his Roma side beat Leicester City in their semi-final.

He has already won the UEFA Europa League and two Champions League titles. Now Roma is now just one game away from giving him a full set.

Mourinho has not spoken too kindly about Europe’s third-tier competition. He said last week that Roma vs Leicester was a fixture that was “too good to be Conference League”.

Indeed, Thursday’s second leg at the Stadio Olimpico did not look like a third-tier match as it was played in front of a crowd of 63,940.

Most of those fans were jumping for joy in the 11th minute when Tammy Abraham headed in his 25th club goal of the season.
