Mourinho's 'they jumped like monkeys' remark caused a stir: Tension on live broadcast!

The Galatasaray-Fenerbahçe derby, one of the most anticipated matches of the season in the Süper Lig, ended in a goalless draw. However, the events following the match and Jose Mourinho's statements overshadowed the derby itself.

MOURINHO'S WORDS BECOME A HOT TOPIC

In the post-derby press conference, Mourinho stated, "Everyone on the other bench was jumping like monkeys." While these words caused a major backlash from the Galatasaray side, the yellow-red management announced that they would file a criminal complaint with the prosecutor's office against the Portuguese manager for his "racist remarks."

ACUN ILICALI REACTS SHARPLY ON LIVE BROADCAST

Jose Mourinho's statements also resonated widely on television programs. Fenerbahçe Vice President Acun Ilıcalı, who joined the TV100 channel live, targeted the Galatasaray management and used the following expressions:

"A move we've been expecting for a long time! It's a decision to change the agenda that came out of the crisis meeting of the Galatasaray management, which we have been following for years! They say they will apply to UEFA... When people jump for a yellow card, Mourinho is describing that. He is not physically comparing those on the bench to monkeys! How did you link this to racism?"

"You are jumping, monkeys jump in the jungle... He says, 'You are jumping for a yellow card.' If I say 'don't jump like a monkey,' am I a racist too? We understood you played poorly, we understood you criticized the referee! When did you get to racism? Don't treat anyone like a fool! May God damn racists. We are not a racist country anyway. Jose Mourinho just made a comparison!"

REACTION TO ERSİN DÜZEN

Acun Ilıcalı also reacted sharply to the host Ersin Düzen on the program, saying:

"Why couldn't you say that these words have nothing to do with racism? Why did you make things difficult?"

RESPONSE FROM ERSİN DÜZEN

In response to Ilıcalı's words, Ersin Düzen replied, "You are our guest, you are welcome here, but no one can decide what I say here," expressing his reaction.
