Mourinho hails record-breaking Real
Posted Monday, May 14, 2012 by ESPN
Jose Mourinho was effusive in his praise of his Real Madrid side after they created history on Sunday after beating Real Mallorca 4-1.
With the three points they picked, they became the first team ever to reach the 100-point mark in La Liga, breaking the competition's record for most number of points accrued in a single season.
And speaking after the game, Mourinho was quick to credit his players for making it all happen.
"I would like to thank everyone for this magical night," the Portuguese said on the club's official website.
"As the best club in football history, Real Madrid try to win all the titles.
"This team has made history as the one that secured 100 points and these players are the ones that made it possible."
Real forward Jose Callejon was quick to pay tribute to the Santiago Bernabeu faithful for the support they had given the side throughout the campaign.
"The truth is that the fans made all this possible," Callejon said. "We always have to give them more.
"We have to continue to fight and go further for them."
Los Blancos also recorded an astounding 121 goals in 38 games, with 46 of those coming off the boot of talisman Cristiano Ronaldo.
