This is what Fenerbahce’s Jose Mourinho said to the referee after getting a red card
Jose Mourinho was sent off in Fenerbahce’s Europa League match against his previous club Manchester United after reacting furiously to a judgment that went against his team.
The Portuguese manager was furious that his team did not receive a penalty soon before the hour mark after Manuel Ugarte collided with full-back Bright Osayi-Samuel.
Osayi-Samuel flung himself to the ground when Ugarte rushed in to make the tackle just as he gave the ball away. Referee Clement Turpin waived the penalty away, and there was no VAR review, despite video indicating minor contact between the two players.
That did not stop the Fenerbahce bench from erupting after Osayi-Samuel fell down, with Diogo Dalot ultimately booting the ball away to enable the player to be treated.
During the stoppage in play, the fourth official restored order on the touchline, then Turpin proceeded over to the Fenerbahce technical area to issue a red card. It was unclear who had been sent out, but Mourinho ultimately found his way to a platform behind the dugout.
He was welcomed by another Fenerbahce coach sitting behind him, who looked to be pointing that he thought he had been sent off, prompting Mourinho to point to himself.
