Mourinho can't hold his nerve! He attacks Galatasaray coach after defeat in

Tensions between the coaches of Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray reached a peak after Fenerbahçe's 2-1 loss in the quarterfinals of the Turkish Cup on Wednesday.

After the match ended, José Mourinho clashed with his counterpart, Okan Buruk, causing an unprecedented incident.

The Portuguese coach approached Buruk from behind and punched him in the nose, causing the Galatasaray coach to fall to the ground.

The moment prompted an immediate backlash, with Galatasaray posting a photo on its official X account, calling the attack unacceptable.

Wednesday's incident is the latest for the Portuguese coach , who has had other tensions with authorities and rivals.

Just a few months ago, he was banned for four matches and fined by the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) for his comments towards Turkish referees after a heated match between Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray.

He has also faced accusations of "racist statements" from the rival club, describing a complicated atmosphere for the experienced Real Madrid, Chelsea, and AS Roma coach.

Mourinho, who has won two Champions Leagues and many other titles during his illustrious career, has yet to comment on the incident, while all eyes are now on the Turkish Federation and whether there will be further sanctions for this unprecedented action.
