A penalty not given to the Turks has overheated the environment

Fenerbahce è exited in the round of 16 of the Europa League. After losing, at home, the first leg match 3-1, Mourinho&#39s team came out on top 2-0 in regulation in Glasgow, thus taking Rangers to extra time. During extra time, the Turks recriminated over a possible penalty foul not seen by the referee but VAR did not è intervene. Then, on penalties, Rangers won and passed the round.

"I can’t say what’s on my mind because I don’t want to be penalized by UEFA. I hope that what è happened to us in Europe this year is not the result of the final played in Budapest. I hope these are things that happen, independent of that;. The game with United, the penalties, what è happened today. They say the VAR referee is one of the best in the world…", Mourinho words in the post-match.

The Special One added: "Whoever missed the penalty will have that penalty in his head when he goes to sleep. I don&#39t think that the VAR referee will suffer from insomnia…", his clear and polemical words, always addressed to the refereeing direction and, in particular, to the VAR operation.

There is no lack of thanks to the team: "I am very proud of my team. At the level of play, we were definitely the best team on the field. Even if we had won on penalties and moved on to the next round, I couldn&#39t be prouder than that.
