Metin Ozturk, the vice president of Galatasaray, has demanded that Fenerbahce manager Jose Mourinho be sanctioned for his Wednesday night attack on Galatasaray’s Okan Buruk.
Recall that Mourinho was seen pinching Buruk’s nose, causing the Galatasaray coach to collapse onto the pitch.
The Portuguese manager was visibly upset as his team lost 2-1 to Galatasaray at the Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium in the quarter-finals of the Turkish Cup.
Speaking on the incident, Ozturk was quoted by The Guardian as saying after the game:
“Mourinho first verbally and then physically attacked [Buruk] … Where else in the world can he do this? What does he think of Turkey?
“I believe that Fenerbahçe’s management will impose the necessary sanction before the federation does,” Oztürk added.
Recall that a brace from Victor Osimhen secured Galatasaray’s victory against Fenerbahçe, while Sebastian Szymanski scored the lone goal for the hosts during the encounter.
