Tottenham reached the Champions League semi-final after defeating Pep Guardiola’s Manchester United on Wednesday, while Ajax dumped Juventus out of the competition.
Mourinho said he would not be surprised if either Tottenham or Ajax win the Europe top-flight tournament this campaign.“I’m really happy for both of them [Tottenham and Ajax],” Mourinho told Russia Today.“The group phase, sometimes you get a little bit lucky, sometimes your opponent is not as good as expected, sometimes you are lucky in the last-16 draw.
“But when you get into the quarter-finals, in a very respectful way, I always say there’s a 12.5 per cent chance for each team to win.“When you get to the semi-finals it’s even more, 25% for each one. I wouldn’t be surprised if Ajax or Tottenham win the Champions League. “Okay, maybe I would be a little bit surprised, but I wouldn’t be in shock because they are in the semi-finals and one of them will go to the final and the final is a final, it’s one game. It’s 90 minutes, it’s the game of a career for the majority of the people.“Ajax are giant killers and Tottenham – we can’t say giant killers because City have no tradition of success in the Champions League – but they are a top team in the country and they beat them too. It’s a 50/50.
