Madrid final brings back Forest memories

Last updated : 19 May 2010 By Forest

The Santiago Bernabéu stadium in Madrid will again host european football's showpiece game this weekend when Jose Mourinho and his Inter Milan side take on Bayern Munich.

Nottingham Forest of course were guided to glory by Brian Clough and, writing in the Belfast Telegraph (http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk)  Malcolm Brodie sees comparisons between him and the 'special one'.

'Fast forward the clock to today and you have in Mourinho a Clough reincarnated'.

John McGovern meanwhile, the man who lifted the great trophy as the Reds saw off SV Hamburg, told http://www.uefa.com : 'We just knew that if we went out and played to our strengths, which was something the manager hammered into you week after week – that it's what you do, not the opposition – then you are going to win the game.'
