Tough times in Europe for Mourinho's Fenerbahçe
While Mourinho found joy in an impromptu barbering session, his Fenerbahçe side endured heartbreak in the UEFA Europa League.
After suffering a 3-1 first-leg defeat to Rangers, they mounted a determined fightback in the return fixture, forcing the tie into extra time and a penalty shootout.
According to Sky Sports, despite their resilience, the Turkish outfit ultimately fell 3-2, bringing their European campaign to an end.
With elimination from Europe’s second-tier club competition, Mourinho’s focus now shifts solely to the Turkish Super Lig, where the battle for the title remains intense.
