Eto'o hails Mourinho: First year at Roma and immediately the final, that's how he is!

Cameroon football federation president Samuel Eto'o was eager to pay tribute to his former Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho.

Eto'o twice won the Coppa Italia, with the final staged tonight between Inter and Juventus.

He told La Gazzetta dello Sport: "I remember everything perfectly. The brace against Palermo in 2011, the victory over Roma with a goal from (Diego) Milito with Mourinho on the bench.

"For José we were all warriors. Did you see? First year at Roma and immediately the final, that's how he is!"

Mourinho has taken Roma to the Europa Conference League final this season.
