Fenerbahce boss Jose Mourinho has criticised the Turkish Super Lig after his side’s dramatic 3-2 win at Trabzonspor.

The former Chelsea and Manchester United boss was unhappy about no penalty being given to the visitors in the 82nd minute when they appealed for a handball inside the box.

In his post-match press conference on Sunday (3 November), Mourinho said: “Nobody abroad wants to watch the Turkish league. Who wants to watch this Turkish league abroad?”

He then added: “It’s too grey, it’s too dark. It smells bad.”
