Jose Mourinho plays as goalkeeper against the press, loses at home

With many of his players out on international duty, Jose Mourinho decided to put on the goalkeeper's gloves and show why he's known as The Special One for his managerial ability instead of his playing ability. The training ground match pitted a team of Real Madrid's coaching staff and employees against a squad comprised of Jose's enemies in the press.

According to AS, Mourinho -- whose father earned one cap for the Portuguese national team as a goalkeeper -- made a few good saves, but couldn't keep the press from winning 3-2.

When one member of the media slotted a penalty kick past him (1:14 into the video above), you could almost see his invincible self-confidence deflate a bit after he belly flopped onto the grass in his attempt to make the save. But in the end, he knew everything would be okay once everyone returned to their usual positions and he could resume outwitting the media every time they ask him a question.

UPDATE: As commenter Larry Harry points out, Jose lost this match at Real's training ground. So there goes his nine-year unbeaten streak at home.
