On October 1, the Champions League will usher in a focus showdown: the new Benfica coach Mourinho leads the team to return to Stamford Bridge to challenge his old club Chelsea. This famous Portuguese coach regained the coaching post of Benfica after twenty-five years, and his coaching career began in 2000 to run this Portuguese superstar.

After leaving office from Fenerbahce this summer, Mourinho quickly took over Benfica. At the inauguration ceremony, he said emotionally: "Experience allows me to better control my emotions. Thanks to the club's trust, I feel very honored. Although I have coached many wealthy families in the past 25 years, no club has made me feel more responsible and motivated than coaching Benfica."
Mourinho will lead the team to complete several domestic league games first, and then go to Stamford Bridge on October 1. He has coached Chelsea twice, led the team to compete in 321 games, winning three Premier League championship trophys for the club, and is recognized as the greatest coach in Chelsea's history.
Regarding the upcoming showdown with Mourinho, the current Chelsea coach Maresca admitted: "There is no doubt that we are looking forward to this confrontation very much. Mourinho is not only a club legend, but also a legendary coach in the world football world. His trophy and achievements are enough to say everything."
