Fenerbahçe manager Jose Mourinho evaluated the victory after the match.
In his post-match statement, Jose Mourinho said: "The man of the match was Atilla Karaoğlan. The invisible man. The referee on the pitch is just a child. Atilla Karaoğlan is the man of the match. We don't want to see him in our matches again. We don't want him as VAR. We don't want him on the pitch either. Before I came here, a lot of things were told to me and I didn't believe them. It's even worse."
REACTION TO Acun Ilıcalı AND ALİ KOÇ
In his statement, Jose Mourinho said: "There was a good team in front of us and they fought well, but we are playing against the system. When I say these things, I am speaking on behalf of all Fenerbahçe fans. That's why we had such an enthusiastic celebration. They told me half the story before I came. If they had told me the whole thing, I wouldn't have come."
"WAS THE REFEREE DRINKING COFFEE?"
Jose Mourinho continued his words: "If the system comes at us even harder, my words will fly away and disappear. For example, the move made on Bright. Was the VAR referee drinking coffee at that time? Didn't he see it? Or was he drinking tea during the position where he should have given a penalty in our favor?
Is that why he didn't see it? I am not from here. You Turks need to talk about these things. Not me. You need to talk about the injustices that have been happening for years. We are clean." he stated.
