After the game, Mourinho gave an interview to BeIN Sports, heavily criticizing the performance of referee Oguzhan Cakir and VAR referee Atilla Karaoglan.”I have to blame Fenerbahce for bringing me here.

They only told me half the truth. They didn’t tell me the whole truth. If they did, I wouldn’t have come.””But with only half the truth and my team, we have to fight against our opponents and fight against the system.””Man of the Match is Atilla Karaoglan (VAR referee). We don’t see him on the pitch but he’s the real referee. The referee on the pitch becomes a little boy.”

“He went from being invisible to being the most important person in the game. I think I speak for the Fenerbahce fans. We don’t need him anymore VAR. We don’t need him on the pitch.”
