Jose Mourinho has to be restrained after putting his hands on Galatasaray manager as three players sent off in mass brawl

Fenerbahce manager Jose Mourinho had to be restrained after putting his hands on Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk in the fiery aftermath of the Turkish Cup quarter-final between the two sides.

Galatasaray won the away match 2-1 through a first half brace from on-loan striker Victor Osimhen.

Sebastian Szymanski pulled a goal back for Fenerbahce before the break but they could not find an equaliser.

A mass brawl erupted in injury time which saw two Galatasaray players and a Fenerbahce player receive straight red cards. All three men were not on the pitch at the time of the sendings off.

Then, after the full-time whistle, Mourinho got into a physical altercation with his opposite number.

The Portuguese boss pinched the face of Galatasaray boss Buruk, who rather theatrically fell to the ground.

Security staff immediately circled around the two men, with Mourinho told to move away from the scene.

Tensions had already boiled over in the 88th minute, starting with an altercation between several players.

It ended with a sea of officials, coaches, players and substitutes from both sides getting involved, with referee Cihan Aydin eventually deciding to send off Galatasaray substitutes Kerim Demirbay and Baris Yilmaz, as well as Fenerbahce's Mert Yandas.

Each team received five yellow cards each - with one of Galatasaray's bookings being shown to manager Buruk early in the second half.

Trouble was perhaps to be expected from the clash, given the events of February's Super Lig fixture between the two sides.

Mourinho was given a four-match ban - later halved - after making what the Turkish FA described as post-match 'derogatory and offensive statements towards the Turkish referee', and because he 'accused Turkish football of chaos and disorder with insulting and offensive statements towards both the Turkish football community and all Turkish referees'.

He later avoided a further ban after an allegation made in an interview with Sky Sports.

"On the day my [four-match] ban was decided, it comes to public eyes that the chief of the disciplinary committee is celebrating among friends with a Galatasaray shirt on," he claimed.

The Turkish FA stated in response that its board had acted in 'complete neutrality since the day it took office', and added: "It will continue like this from now on. Therefore, such statements are not personalised by our Board."
