Roma won the inaugural Europa Conference League last season, beating Feyenoord 1-0 in the final.
The Dutch side then got their own back by winning the first leg 1-0 last week, but Mourinho warned a journalist they still had not enacted revenge.
And after Roma turned the tie around with a 4-1 win at the Stadio Olimpico last night, Mourinho celebrated in emphatic fashion.
He high-fived his players and hugged staff before the final whistle and began to pump his fists, calling on the crowd to be vocal.
And in his post-match press conference he cheekily gifted the same journalist a key chain with the Europa Conference League trophy insignia on it before answering questions.
Mourinho has a history of showmanship on European nights, with perhaps his most famous moment coming at Old Trafford in 2004.
The Portuguese wrote his name into Champions League folklore after sprinting down the touchline following Porto’s last-minute winner against the Red Devils, and 19 years on he has not lost his magic.
Fans loved Mourinho’s wind-up and were glad to see a glimpse of the old Jose back.
