THE TURKISH TRAGEDY

Galatasaray and Fenerbahce, the two biggest clubs in Turkey, played a dull 0-0 draw in Monday's Istanbul derby. The highlight of the match was when Mourinho accused the Galatasaray bench of "jumping like monkeys" at his press conference. In response, Galatasaray accused Mourinho of racism, a charge that Fenerbahce disputes. The club's vice president insisted that Mourinho's remarks had nothing to do with racism. Galatasaray is simply attempting to manipulate this situation by merely acting like animals.

However, Jose Mourinho has now been fined 35,194 pounds and banned for four games for remarks he allegedly made. It is quite unfortunate that a Manager who has played a key role in developing players from Africa is facing the charges of racism and has also been punished for the same. 

What relation did Mourinho had with African Players. I am just posting the tweet of Drogba to show my readers the same. 


To be honest it is quite unfortunate that Jose has been accused and punished of something like this. One can only hope that in the coming times Turkish Football Association will realize its mistake and would thus rectify the same. Afterall it's a disgrace. ******* Disgrace.
