Mourinho is the first manager to win European titles at four different clubs, while Roma claim a first trophy on the continent since 1961.
Nevertheless, there was still a budget Europa League trophy to be won, and Wikipedia pages waiting to be updated. Rui Patrício superbly denied Lutsharel Geertruida to keep his side in front, while Chris Smalling repeatedly kept the competition’s top scorer, Cyriel Dessers, at bay. Huzzah! But alas, this was somewhat futile given Feyenoord and Roma had already qualified for Europe’s second-tier competition by way of their domestic finishes.
Nicolo Zaniolo's 32nd-minute effort was enough to edge Roma past Feyenoord 1-0 to win the first ever Europa Conference League final.
Feyenoord maintained their momentum at the start of the second half and almost levelled when Roma defender Gianluca Mancini deflected a short corner onto his own post before Rui Patricio saved well. Feyenoord keeper Justin Bijlow saved well from Chris Smalling before the Dutchmen ended the half with their first real chances from Orkun Kokcu and Cyriel Dessers. It proved a typical Mourinho-style triumph as Roma sat deep and soaked up plenty of pressure before cruising through the second half with the minimum of fuss.
ROMA 1-0 FEYENOORD: Nicolo Zaniolo's tidy finish and a massive save from goalkeeper Rui Patricio helped Jose Mourinho's Roma side get the better of ...
The Serie A side tried their best to threaten on the break, but Feyenoord too kept attacking in search of an equaliser. Roma defender Mancini deflected a cross onto his own post, and then the Giallorossi needed their keeper to be at his very best to tip a blast from Tyrell Malacia onto the woodwork. Roma owed a lot to goalkeeper Rui Patricio and impressive centre-back Chris Smalling, but Mourinho's men held on in the end despite their opponents' pressure.
Jose Mourinho became the first manager ever to lift the UEFA Europa Conference League trophy after his Roma side beat Feyenoord in Wednesday's final.

“One thing I said when I came here was I was going to help the team get to the final and one day I want to win a trophy. Three Italian fans and two Dutch supporters were also injured.

We have worked hard all year.
It's Roma's first European trophy since winning the 1961 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup — a tournament considered to be the precursor to the UEFA Cup and Europa League.
Zaniolo’s goal started with a ball over the top from center back Gianluca Mancini that Zaniolo controlled with his chest. Three Italian fans and two Dutch supporters were also injured.

He is both a serial winner and an expert in dealing with pressure at the highest level. Mourinho fields three at the back, two attacking wing-backs, solid midfielders and two dynamic players behind the lone striker, Tammy Abraham. Roma love to attack at pace, getting the ball forward with as few touches as possible. Their resilience came to the fore in the showpiece as they repelled a determined Feyenoord in the second half to make history by scooping the club's first European silverware.

In a final against an Italian team it's especially difficult to create chances, and even more so when it's an Italian team coached by Mourinho."

Nicolo Zaniolo won Roma their first ever major European trophy on Wednesday with the only goal in a 1-0 win over Feyenoord in the inaugural Europa ...
The goal made Zaniolo the first Italian to score in a European final since Filippo Inzaghi in 2007 as well as a confirmed hero for Roma fans. For 1970 European champions Feyenoord it was their first ever defeat in a European final as well as being the first loss in the competition for Arne Slot’s team. Italy international Zaniolo struck with a well-taken finish in the 32nd minute to earn Roma their first trophy of any kind since 2008 and cap a successful first season for coach Jose Mourinho in Rome.

The Giallorossi lifted the trophy as Mourinho once again delivered in a final and became the first coach to win the Europa Conference League, the Europa League and the Champions League. In the second half, we had more possession and opportunities. Chris Smalling, Roma defender: "We knew how much it would mean to everyone in Rome and you can see how together we are until the end. We struggled in the second half; our opponents played well and they forced us to make defensive changes." Arne Slot, Feyenoord coach: "I told the players during the break what they had to do better. Roma won their first ever UEFA trophy, the first ever edition of the Europa Conference League, and did so by taking their best chance, holding firm at the back and keeping that vital clean sheet. Rui Patrício made a magnificent save in the second half which made a big difference in the game. Let's be honest, they were the better team, but Feyenoord had a decent campaign. However, as Feyenoord piled on the pressure, a now compact Roma side dropped deep. How different things may have been if they'd managed to play with such intensity before the break as well. Roma made the first meaningful advance, but Nicolò Zaniolo's outstretched leg was a whisker away from a cute Lorenzo Pellegrini through ball. It was a cagey opening in Tirana, as both sides cautiously probed and looked to test their opponents' mettle.

With a few new faces and a radically different philosophy, he’s turned Feyenoord into an energetic, high-pressing side who’ve outscored everyone else in the competition. He took on the challenge of getting Roma back to winning trophies, and is now just one step away from seeing it through. With six goals and four assists in the competition so far, he’s one of the main reasons Feyenoord are in Tirana. Feyenoord were the first Dutch club to win the European Cup – in 1970. Joining the club aged only 18, he’s already been in Rotterdam for four years. He has a unique ability to tie together the midfield and attack, and Mourinho never leaves him out.

As Roma play the Conference final, a look at a player who won European trophies with Fiorentina and Roma, in one season.
That is the story of Dino Da Costa, the man who won two European trophies in one season with two different clubs. That game before the final against Venezia turned out to be Da Costa’s last game for Roma, as he was sold to Atalanta shortly afterwards. On January 12th Da Costa scored in a 4-1 win for Roma over Juventus, and three days later he was lining out at Windsor Park in Belfast as Italy took on Northern Ireland in a crucial World Cup qualifier. That turned out to be Dino’s last game for Atalanta, and he would soon be joining up with Sivori when Juventus signed him for the following season. That former Roma target and opponent with Hibs, Joe Baker, scored a hat-trick for Torino, but his brother Gerry scored one of the City goals which gave them a 4-3 win. In the semi-final, Fiorentina hosted Juventus, with Da Costa scoring the final goal in a 3-1 win to see the Viola reach the final. That wasn’t the end of his Fiorentina adventure however, as a week later in the final of the Coppa Italia they would face Lazio in Florence. After Gianfranco Petris gave Fiorentina an early lead, the game failed to provide much more in the way of entertainment. Former Fiorentina player Lojacono had missed that game as he was expected to sign for Milan shortly and the club were unwilling to risk an injury. Once the Coppa delle Alpi was out of the way, Dino Da Costa was on his way back to Roma. Although we had now reached the 1961/62 season, the final of the previous season’s Fairs Cup had yet to be played. Fiorentina were drawn to meet Young Boys, and in the first game in Berne they suffered a 3-2 defeat, which would turn out to be the only loss by an Italian side in the competition. The forward made an immediate impact, scoring on his Serie A debut, and he also scored against Fiorentina in a 1-1 draw at the end of April. A week later Fiorentina were league champions for the first time. Tonight, Roma return to compete in a European final after 31 years, and the new Europa Conference League competition is where Fiorentina will compete next season.

“At Juve there is a very strong front office, which puts players in the best position to win, to focus only on the pitch and nothing else. He’s doing a great job this year.” He can handle pressure situations.”

And I think that a big part of the Italian football problem of this era, (the struggles in Europe) have their issues in this very bad mentality, without a real sports culture. And yes, I think it could take him to a new level,” says Fonsato. “It’s worth stating this: in Italy - like a big part of Europe (remember Brendan Rodgers words about Conference League?) - this competition has yet to find the right recognition. The culture around Italian football and Europe has been very interesting. “Roma's supporters are very excited, you have to consider that,” says Fonsato. “In addition to their normal - very warm – support of their team, they could live their first European triumph since 1961. In the club’s entire history they have just one European title, the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup which they won 1960-61.
It was thought that the Portuguese was past his best, but 'The Special One' could make more history in Wednesday's Europa Conference League final.
As Mourinho said after the semi-final, "This is a victory of the family. The latter is a new trophy; it is obviously the least prestigious of the three. "After 30 years, the fans of Rome can enjoy seeing their team in a European final. Anyone who has attended a Roma home game this season would find it difficult to disagree. Mourinho told Sky Sport Italia. "He is a great player with potential to be even greater." "He takes a player and makes him stronger than he is. He is amazing and he gets inside your head. As former Portugal international Adrien Silva told GOAL, "It's surprising in one sense, because Roma was having a very difficult time before he arrived. "I understand you needed a big name, but it’s like when you sign a player who is finished. Their belief was that he could do something just as miraculous at the Stadio Olimpico. "You’ve got the worst of the worst,” Di Canio claimed. This was classic Mourinho, of course.

It's the inaugural UEFA Europa Conference League final as Roma face Feyenoord in tonight's final at the Air Albania Stadium in Tirana.
Abraham has 21 goals for the Italian side already this season - can he finish the campaign in style by adding to that tally? Big news for Feyenoord is that goalkeeper and captain Bijlow is fit and he makes an immediate return to the starting XI. This will be Nelson’s final game before his loan spell ends at the club and he returns to Arsenal in the summer. Mkhitaryan is fit to start for Roma and he comes in to replace Oliveira in the team. Tammy Abraham scored in the 11th minute of the second leg and that was enough to send his side to Albania. Job. Done. A goalless draw was enough for the Dutch side to go through and earn a place in their first European final for 20 years. For Feyenoord, a 0-0 draw in Marseille did the job after they won 3-2 at home and they’ll be looking to mark the 20th anniversary of the club’s UEFA Cup success with another trophy to add to the cabinet.

On loan from Genk, Cyriel Dessers is the top scorer in the competition with 10 goals and will play up front for the Dutch side.
