A third defeat of the campaign for Madrid, coupled with wins for Barcelona, Chelsea, Sporting Lisbon and Manchester City, meant Madrid missed out on the top eight and will have to play in the two-legged knockout play-off round. For Mourinho, who coached Madrid between 2010 and 2013, it was a first victory at the second time of asking against his old club since departing them. "I think it was deserved, really deserved... for Benfica it's an incredible prestige to beat Real Madrid," Mourinho said. Friday's draw will reveal if Benfica face a rematch against Madrid or 10th-placed Inter Milan, with whom Mourinho won the competition in 2010. "Madrid and Inter are teams who can win the Champions League, and we are a team who at most can do something incredible."
