Super Lig giants Fenerbahçe were held to a 2-2 draw by underdogs Goztepe in this round of league matches, with manager José Mourinho criticizing the opponents afterwards.
“The Fenerbahçe players are clearly not smart enough; our conduct on the field is different from that of the opponents. We should learn from them and lie down on the ground promptly to waste time, feigning injuries to stop the game.”
“The opposing manager is a good coach; he may not be able to become a champion, but he has led his team into the top league. I also respect his style of play. We exchanged words before the match and greeted each other after the game.”
“Even though the referee gave six minutes of added time, we still had the chance to finish off the game. Also, when we were leading in the second half, I told the players that they needed to seize the opportunity to put the game away.”
