The Manchester United boss got the better of a fellow Portuguese during a Premier League meeting with Swansea and was in high spirits afterwards
Jose Mourinho has endured his fair share of run-ins with fellow bosses down the years, but the Manchester United manager was happy to share his press conference with Carlos Carvalhal on Saturday.
The Red Devils had just wrapped up a 2-0 victory over Swansea when two touchline rivals prepared to face the assembled media.
With three points in the bag, Mourinho was in high spirits as he took to his seat.
Romelu Lukaku’s 100th top-flight goal and a welcome effort from January signing Alexis Sanchez allowed United to cement their standing in second spot.
Mourinho was offering his take on the contest when fellow Portuguese Carvalhal caught his eye.
He beckoned the Swansea boss to join him, while making reference to his compatriot offering Easter treats to reporters at a pre-match press conference.
"Come on, come on - give cakes to the guys," Mourinho said.
Carvalhal accepted the invitation, saying of a meeting with a close friend: "I think Manchester United deserved the win.
"It is so clear than Manchester United started to play very strong with high intensity.
