#3 Copa del Rey: Real Madrid 1-0 Barcelona, 2011
Having been the most obvious foe of Pep Guardiola, Jose was lured to the Santiago Bernabeu to crush the Blaugrana dominance. His defiant "anti tiki taka" style was a mixed success as he won a single yet memorable League title.
His first trophy, however, was the 2011 Copa Del Rey, one of five classicos in the 2010-11 season. Having already lost 5-0 in their first encounter, pressure was on to deliver in Real Madrid. In classic Mourinho fashion, Pepe, Xabi Alonso and Sami Khedira were fielded as a midfield destroyer trio to counter Leo Messi.
A dirty encounter heading to penalties was turned on its head by Cristiano Ronaldo who leapt onto Angel Di Maria's deep cross to win the game 1-0. It was Real Madrid's first trophy since 2008, and that over their bitter arch rivals, meant Jose had delivered joy to the Los Blancos faithful.
#2 Chelsea 3-0 Manchester United, Premier League 2005/06
The self-proclaimed "Special One" arrived on the shores of England and shocked the core of English football as he led Chelsea to their first-ever Premiership title, turning the status quo on its head.
The second season title victory in 2005-06 was perhaps even more impressive and was memorably punctuated by a 3-0 drubbing of title rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford.
A William Gallas header put Chelsea in front early on, before two outstanding second-half goals from individual brilliance by both Joe Cole and Ricardo Carvalho showed the might of Chelsea's dominance and style.
#1 Barcelona 1-0 Inter Milan (2-3 on aggregate), Champions League 2009/10
Perhaps the most famous and celebrated defeat of Jose's career was the 1-0 loss of Inter Milan to Barcelona. Jose Mourinho’s Inter Milan, however, went on to win on aggregate (2-3) in the Semi Finals of the 2010 Champions League.
Facing his philosophical nemesis and soon to be constant rival for the first time over a two-legged clash, Jose's industrious Inter Milan team outwitted the famous attacking flair of Barcelona's tiki taka football. Despite holding a 3-1 lead, a Thiago Motta red card meant Inter battled with 10 men against a determined Barcelona.
A defensive masterclass with Samuel Eto'o at left wing back and Materazzi in fine form meant Inter scraped through to keep the likes of Messi and Zlatan Ibrahimovic at bay, going on to win a historic treble.
Mourinho's full-time celebrations angered the irate Nou Camp, as he shushed the whole stadium with a defensive masterclass.
