Mourinho cried.

Jose Mourinho couldn't hold back his emotions as Benfica paid tribute to Silvino Louro, his close associate throughout many of the peak periods of his coaching career.

Mourinho couldn't hold back his tears.

In the early hours of March 22nd, Mourinho's emotional moment occurred during a match in the 27th round of the Portuguese Primeira Liga, when Benfica won 3-0 against Vitoria Guimaraes.

Mourinho stood silently on the touchline, his hands clasped behind his back, his eyes heavy with emotion. His face was tense, his eyes red, trying to suppress his feelings during the moment of silence for his close colleague. Despite maintaining his usual calm demeanor, the lump in his throat was evident in his distant gaze.

On March 20th, European football received sad news when former goalkeeping coach Silvino Louro passed away at the age of 67. Louro's passing leaves a huge void in the coaching world and is a profound loss for Mourinho.

Louro's name is closely associated with coach Mourinho. He previously served as goalkeeping coach at a number of major clubs managed by the Portuguese strategist, including Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Real Madrid, and Manchester United.

In 2016, he followed "The Special One" to Manchester United, working there for three seasons. At Old Trafford, Louro helped build a solid goalkeeping team with prominent names such as David de Gea, Sergio Romero, and Sam Johnstone.

Before transitioning to coaching in the early 2000s, Louro was a professional goalkeeper. He played for top Portuguese clubs such as SL Benfica, Porto, and Vitoria Setubal, and also made 23 appearances for the Portuguese national team.
