“The coach who plays away goes first, it's normal, to be free. But there are limits! I waited 70 minutes and even after that I couldn't go, because his press conference continued. I can't wait 70, 75 or 80 minutes for a press conference.“The same will happen in the next game, I'll go to the flash interview straight after the game, because that's the logic of flash interviews.“It's not 20 minutes after the game, it's straight after.
Mourinho had enjoyed an impressive start in Istanbul with Fenerbahce winning four of their first five Super Lig games in the run-up to Saturday's crunch clash.However, the 61-year-old’s outfit endured a disastrous evening as they went 3-0 down, before Edin Dzeko netted a consolation goal.
