Jose Mourinho Sprinted Like A '14-Year-Old' After AS Roma Equalised In His 'Special' 1000th Game - Watch Video

Serie A: Mourinho sprinted the length of the ground after Stephan El Shaarawy scored a late winner to win the match 2-1. Take a look at Jose Mourinho's winning sprint after the second Roma goal.

The 'Special One' - Jose Mourinho is never away from the media spotlight. On Sunday, during Roma vs Sassuolo match, Mourinho sprinted the length of the ground after Stephan El Shaarawy scored a late winner to win the match 2-1. It was Jose Mourinho's 1000th game in charge as a manager of the team and he was really happy after the success in his "special match".

This match marked Mourinho's 639th win of his managerial career. Roma had scored one goal in the first half but then Djuicic equalized for Sassuolo in the 57th minute. The match was heading towards a draw when Stephan El Shaarawy scored a brilliant 91st-minute goal to seal the deal for Roma.

Take a look at Jose Mourinho's winning sprint after the second Roma goal:

“During the week, I lied to myself, telling everyone this was not a special game. I was trying to convince myself it was not special. It was a special match,” Mourinho told AP. “It was a match with a special number for me, which I will remember until the last day of my life."

Mourinho said that he felt like a child while doing that sprint. “I didn’t feel 58 today. I felt 10, 12 or 14 years old — the age when you start to dream of a career in soccer. It was the run of a child," the Portuguese added. 

Jose Mourinho is currently the manager of AS Roma and has won all three matches in Serie A this season so far. Roma is also on top of the league ahead of Napoli. Surprisingly, Juventus has not managed to win a single game after Cristiano Ronaldo's exit and they are at the 16th position in the league. Juve lost against Napoli despite Morata scoring in the 10th minute. 

In other matches, Milan defeated Lazio courtesy of a goal by Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
