On October 23, in the third round of the UEFA Champions League, Benfica lost to Newcastle 0-3 away from home. After the game, Mourinho praised Newcastle forward Gordon's performance and said that his team had difficulty coping with Newcastle's physical confrontation throughout the game.

Mourinho said: "The three goals we conceded were all scored in transition. The first goal, I don't count it as a typical transition attack, but it was a quick counterattack. Dedic failed against Gordon, the best player on the field. Well, his performance was very good, that diagonal breakthrough was wonderful."

"The second goal was a transition attack, and the third goal was also at that stage, we were really stuck. Struggled. They are a very physical team with great quality and pace. Every set piece is difficult to defend, but we try our best to deal with it. They beat us with speed and intensity in transition and we couldn't keep up.
