Coach Jose Mourinho (62) could not avoid disciplinary action. He lost his temper and ended up leaving the bench for three games in return for pulling the opponent coach's nose.
Britain's "Sky Sports" reported on the 6th (Korea Standard Time) that Mourinho was suspended for three games after colliding with coach Okan Buruk Galatasaray. He grabbed Coach Buruk's face after losing 1-2 to rival Galatasaray in the Turkiye Cup.
The Turkiye Football Federation (TFF) suspended Mourinho for three games and fined him 6,000 pounds (approximately 11.3 million won). He will no longer be able to direct matches with Travjonspor, Chivaspor and Caicerispor in the Schiffer League.
Currently, Fenerbahce is lagging behind Galatasaray in second place in the league. With one less game to play, Fenerbahce is six points shorter than Galatasaray. As the coach is away at an important time at the end of the season, the competition for the championship has become even more difficult. Fenerbahce is in danger of having no chance to win the title even after bringing in the "giant" Mourinho.
The incident occurred on the 3rd. At the time, Fenerbahce was eliminated from the quarterfinals of the turquoise cup, losing 1-2 to Galatasaray. Victor Osimhen's multi-goal in the first half was crucial. The two teams had a fierce battle for the entire 90 minutes, and four red cards came out in extra time in the second half.
Mourinho added fuel to the heated fight. He suddenly committed an act while shaking hands with the judges after the whistle blew. He approached him from behind and pulled his nose. He collapsed on the spot, covering his face.
According to Sky Sports, Mourinho was restrained by staff around him shortly after the collision, and Buruk lay on the ground for a while, covering his face, complaining of pain. "It was just a little snoring, and I got a minor cut. It was an ungrateful gesture, but I will not expand it further," Buruk said in a post-match press conference.
However, the Galatasaray team shot Mourinho with the phrase "Don't attack, digest it" through its official social media. "Mourinho attacked first verbally and then physically," Galatasaray Vice Chairman Metin 외ztürk said. "How dare you do this in Turkiye? How can this happen? Fenerbahce should take disciplinary action first."
This is not the first time Mourinho has had trouble facing off against Galatasaray. After drawing 0-0 in the Istanbul Derby in February, he became a hot topic of criticism against the Turkiye referee. In addition, controversy over racial discrimination arose as the Galatasaray bench described him as "running around like a monkey."
In the end, TFF suspended Mourinho for two games and visited the referee's locker room for two more games. In addition, he was fined 1.6 million lira. Since then, Fenerbahce's appeal has been accepted, however, the suspension and fines have been halved.
Mourinho was given similar disciplinary action in November last year when he clashed with a referee. He has not changed at all in Turkey. 메이저놀이터
Mourinho is a veteran player who has won trophies with numerous clubs including Porto, Inter Milan, Chelsea, and Real Madrid. He used to be known as a "trouble maker" for his fiery personality and outspokenness.
Nevertheless, Fenerbahce still firmly believes in Mourinho. "To be clear, the club didn't bring Mourinho in order to maintain the status quo. We brought him in to disrupt that," said Petty Peckin, a member of Fenerbahce Boardzin. "Mourinho represents everything this club aims for. Ambition, courage and constant desire to win. Losing to him is not an option."
He also said, "What happened in Derby recently was not just a football rivalry. It was an organized effort to stimulate our bench, team, players and coaches. Mourinho responded by provoking himself and ignoring those who are not afraid. We fully support him," adding, "That's okay. We are not here to obey the old rules."
