Jose Mourinho Banned for Nose Grabbing Incident in Istanbul Derby

Read

Fenerbahce manager Jose Mourinho has been banned for three matches and fined £6,000 after grabbing the nose of Galatasaray coach Okan Buruk in a bizarre incident during the Istanbul derby.



Jose Mourinho fined 6,000 ($7,734.00) for grabbing the nose of Galatasaray coach Okan Buruk during the Istanbul derby. The incident occurred at the end of the Turkish Cup quarter-finals on Wednesday, where Fenerbahce lost 2-1 at home. The Turkish Football Federation (TFF) announced the disciplinary action against Mourinho on Saturday.


The bizarre nose-grabbing incident has sparked controversy, with Mourinho's actions being deemed unacceptable by the TFF. The ban and fine will likely impact Fenerbahce's upcoming matches, as Mourinho will be unable to lead his team in person. This development may affect the team's performance and strategy in the short term.




A heated mass scuffle erupted between both sets of players during the Istanbul derby, prompting the referee to send three players off, two from Galatasaray. In the aftermath, Fenerbahce manager Jose Mourinho appeared to pinch Galatasaray coach Okan Buruk's nose, causing Buruk to fall dramatically to the ground. This bizarre incident led to disciplinary action against Mourinho.


The Turkish Football Federation (TFF) handed Mourinho a three-match ban and a fine of approximately £6,000 ($7,734.00). The ban prohibits Mourinho from entering the dressing room and the bench for three official matches. As a result, he will miss Fenerbahce's upcoming games against Trabzonspor, Sivasspor, and Kayserispor. Currently, Fenerbahce ranks second in the Super Lig, trailing leaders Galatasaray by six points with a game in hand.
