Jose Mourinho claims that his handshake with London's Chelsea manager Antonio Conte speaks for itself. Previously sharp words between the two strategists met yesterday when Manchester United's footballers were welcomed at Old Trafford stadium. After 90 minutes of battle resulting in a 2-1 victory for the Red Devils, the coaches seemed to have resolved their disagreements. "No words are needed for the handshake," Mourinho said after the match. "This is what Antonio and I want to show everyone. We are not just ordinary people in football. We have a common history." The Portuguese also praised their opponents, who, despite losing after a fierce battle yesterday, played a draw with Barcelona in the middle of the week. "We beat a fantastic team. They were champions last season for a reason, they played well against Barcelona for a reason, and they started the game well for a reason," Mourinho told Sky Sports. "So, we beat a very good team. We had to be organized, everyone had to follow the game and show spirit. We beat a very good team." This victory was very important for Manchester United in the race for second place in the Premier League.
