Jose Mourinho grabs the nose of Galatasaray's manager
Jose Mourinho's return to the sidelines didn't go well, as he was once again involved in a heated altercation with Galatasaray's manager. The special one went to the extent of grabbing the nose of Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk after the full-time whistle. The scenes turned ugly as Galatasaray's players rushed towards Jose Mourinho, who left the pitch soon.
Galatasaray secured a 2-1 victory, propelled by a brace from Victor Osimhen. Osimhen scored twice in an intense fixture to help his side pass the victory line. However, the match concluded in discord as both benches were involved in a mass brawl, resulting in three red cards being issued. Substitute Kerim Demirbay was shown a red for the Galatasaray while Fenerbahce's Mert Hakan Yandas and Baris Alper Yilmaz were also dismissed. Notably, Yilmaz was the only one of the trio to feature in the game.
The chosen one is on the verge of serving another suspension following such 'childish' behaviour. His side, Fenerbahce, is set to face Trabzonspor on April 6th. Fenerbahce sits second in the Super Lig standings, 6 points behind table-toppers Galatassrey.
