MOU BACK TO HIS OWN WAYS
Mourinho returns in style with one of the biggest rants of recent times
Mourinho lost his temper in the press room and made one of the biggest rants ever. The Portuguese player was extremely harsh against the Turkish Football League
José Mourinho once again showed his most unpleasant and aggressive side against the referee of Trabzonspor-Fenerbahce (2-3). The former Real Madrid coach lashed out extremely harshly at the match's referee and the person in charge of the VAR, whom he accused of 'drinking Turkish tea'.
It is very difficult to play against the system and today the system had a name, and that name was Atilla Karaoglan.
The Portuguese's rants against referees are now a classic in football. Few coaches have had as many regrettable moments throughout their careers as Mourinho. His rants against Barça and Pep Guardiola marked an era.
Although this time his team ended up winning the match and taking the three points with a goal in injury time, the two penalties awarded against Fenerbahce provoked one of the biggest rants in recent times. Mourinho decided to 'humiliate' Turkish football with some incendiary statements and insinuating that it was the victim of a corrupt league and system.
I didn't watch the games until I came because nobody abroad wants to watch the Turkish league. Who wants to watch the Turkish league abroad? They have the Premier League, they have the French League, they have the German League, they have the Portuguese League, they have the Dutch League. Why should they watch this? It's too grey, it's too dark, it smells bad.
The attack on the Ottoman championship has been so harsh that a possible chain reaction by Turkish football cannot be ruled out at this time, with consequences for the coach, which could force his dismissal.
