Champions League live scores, updates: José Mourinho, Real Madrid face Inter Milan, Manchester City opens against Porto as League Phase kicks off

José Mourinho's three years with Real Madrid during his first stint with Los Blancos saw him win trophies, but not the Champions League . The "Special One's" sides did reach three consecutive semifinals in the competition yet the European title eluded him. Now 13 years after he departed, Mourinho is back to lead a Real Madrid team that has been bounced in the quarterfinals in each of the past two seasons. "When I left in 2013, we won what we won and lost what we lost, and we gave it our all," Mourinho said this week when asked if he felt pressure to deliver European glory in his return. "And that was that. What I need to do now has nothing to do with the past. Back in 2010, we weren't even reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League and it had been ages since we'd played in a semi-final. Now we've won six Champions Leagues in a little over a decade."
