This iconic photograph captures a historic moment in the annals of football history, as Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho made his long-awaited return to Old Trafford on August 26,2013, for the Premier League clash between Manchester United and Chelsea. The Portuguese tactician had previously managed United from 2004 to 2007, leading them to three successive Premier League titles and an FA Cup. Upon his departure from United, Mourinho's relationship with the club's fans and management soured, and his return as Chelsea manager was met with a mixture of anticipation and animosity. The tension was palpable as Mourinho took his place in the stands prior to kick-off, donning his Chelsea tracksuit and watching intently as his former team took to the pitch. The atmosphere was electric, with both sets of fans voicing their opinions on the matter. The air was thick with excitement and nostalgia, as fans reminisced about Mourinho's time at United and wondered what the future held for this highly-anticipated matchup. The encounter itself was a thrilling one, with both teams displaying their attacking prowess and defensive resilience. Ultimately, it was Chelsea who emerged victorious, with a late goal from Eden Hazard securing a 1-0 win for the visitors. Mourinho's return to Old Trafford had delivered on all expectations, providing a fitting reminder of his enduring legacy at both Manchester United and Chelsea. This photograph, taken by renowned sports photographer Darren Walsh, encapsulates the tension, anticipation, and excitement of that fateful day in August 2013, and serves as a testament to the passion and intensity of the beautiful game.
