Commenting on the difference between Barcelona, leaders, and Real Madrid, which could reach 13 points if they win Sunday night against the Catalans Atletico Madrid, Mourinho felt that this distance was now prohibitive.
"It is practically impossible. These are too many points behind us at this stage of the competition. Last year we had a 10-point lead in February and we managed to win the league," has resigned "soft. "
The technician Real seems to have totally postponed its ambitions in the Champions League and the Copa del Rey.
"If we improve in the league, it will serve also for the Cup and the Champions League," ruled "The Special One".
