After 9 solid years at the top management level of European football without conceding a single defeat at home, the 'Special One' finally tastes the humble. This incredible feat, spanning 4 top leagues in Europe, 9 endless years, 150+ matches, was halted not by the high and mighty but by the relegation threatened Sporting Gijon. Jose Mourinho's side evidently missed the genius of star player Cristiano Ronaldo, and the talent of both Kaka and Higuain, but the Portuguese will know his wards were to blame for missing several chances in a game Real Madrid completely dominated- Adebayo, Khedira, Di Maria, the chief culprits. In a match of little drama and almost one-sided, Sporting Gijon stepped 13 minutes from time to stun Casillas and the 70,000 fans watching inside the Bernabeu, to condemn Jose Mourinho to his first defeat in 9 years and Real's first this term.
