José Mourinho may have splashed quite a bit of cash in his two pre-seasons as Man United boss, but his efforts to win a UEFA Super Cup title have proven to be futile.
The Special One seems to lose his mojo when playing this competition, as he's failed to win it in three separate occasions. He'd lost previously while coaching Porto and Chelsea, and now, he added more shame to his record with the Red Devils.
Jose Mourinho is the first manager to lose in charge of 3 different sides in the Super Cup:

Manchester United shares the same fate with their current coach, as they have failed to win this tournament three times.

If that wasn't enough to shame Mourinho, his woeful record against Real Madrid in competitive games could have been a sign of things to come before the beginning of this clash.
