Jose Mourinho has explained why he decided to watch RB Leipzig’s goalless draw with Bayern Munich on Sunday evening.
Leipzig travelled to the Allianz Arena yesterday, with the two sides playing out a goalless draw that keeps defending champions Bayen top of the Bundesliga.
And Mourinho was spotted watching the match ahead of Tottenham’s Champions League Round of 16 tie with Leipzig.
“It's very important. I can see small details. Even the warm-ups. I can see what TV and video don't give me,” Mourinho told Sky.
“To see the warm-ups and to see what the players do individually.
“Some skills that sometimes during the game are hidden. It's a different intensity. It's a different experience. I couldn't miss the opportunity.”
Mourinho added that, unlike his players, he does not need to take a winter break.
“The players needed some days off. For their body and soul they needed a rest. But not for me.
“I think the best way to try and help the team is to work.”
