Jose Mourinho delivers box-office post-match interview after being sent off vs Man Utd, it's a must-watch

Jose Mourinho was his usual self against former club Manchester United in the Europa League clash on Thursday night.

Mourinho's Fenerbahce side claimed a 1-1 draw in Istanbul, with Youssef En-Nesyri's header cancelled out a strike from Christian Eriksen 15 minutes in.

Mourinho was animated when Andre Onana produced a stunning double save and ended up getting sent off and forced to watch the remaining period of the game from the stands following his protests over a penalty decision not being given.

Bright Osayi-Samuel went down under the challenge of Manuel Ugarte but French referee Clement Turpin was unmoved.

Mourinho is reported to have fumed at the referee down the tunnel at the end of the game and then produced a priceless four-minute post-match interview with Danny Jamieson of TNT Sports afterwards.

He might have said he "didn't want to speak" about the decision at first but Mourinho quickly provided gold in the chat, sarcastically praising the referee for being able to see the penalty incident and his behaviour at the same time.

"He told me something incredible," Mourinho told TNT Sports.

"He told me at the same time he could see the action in the box and my behaviour on the touchline. I congratulate him because he is absolutely incredible, his peripheral vision. During the game, at 100mph, he had one eye on the penalty situation and he had one eye on the bench and my behaviour. That's the explanation he gave me. That's why he's one of the best referees in the world.

"I watched the incident, I don't speak about the incident."

When it was put to him that his team got a point against United, Mourinho replied: "No they got a point against us! They got a point against us, not us a point against them. We played amazing.

"I was telling the players, in the Turkish league we destroy every team because of course we played a team that is at a superior level to us. Of course the Premier League has more quality and more intensity. I think my boys did an amazing job."

Mourinho's side are still undefeated in the Europa League after three games and currently occupy 14th spot in the newly revamped table with five points.

United, meanwhile, have drawn all three games and sit down in 21st on three points.
