Ahead Of The AS Roma Vs Feyenoord Conference League Final, Jose Mourinho: This Is The History We Have Written

JAKARTA - AS Roma will face Feyenoord in the final of the Europa Conference League at the Air Albania Stadium, Tirana, Albania, Thursday, May 26 in the morning WIB.

AS Roma coach Jose Mourinho said this match was history the club had written. Understandably, the Roma Wolves have long been absent from appearing in the final of a competition.

The last time AS Roma reached the European competition final was in the 1983/1984 season when they faced Liverpool in the Champions League. At that time, they failed to win after losing on penalties 2-4 after a 1-1 draw for 120 minutes.

"This is the history we have written, by getting to this point, to the final after so many years," Mourinho told the club's official website.

"But, obviously, every time you reach the final you have to give everything you can to write real history. And that means winning."

The Portuguese coach said that currently AS Roma's squad was focused on the match against Feyenoord after finishing Italy's Serie A last week. In the last party, Lorenzo Pellegrini and his friends beat Torino 3-0 to ensure a place in the Europa League.

"We did it before the game against Torino. It was a difficult and important game," said Mourinho. "It's important for us to realize that playing the final is already a tense moment."

"But we did it, we qualified and we achieved our target, and that's the best way for now to focus on this final."
