Fenerbahçe 1-1 Manchester United

José Mourinho was in fine form during his post-match duties after watching his Fenerbahçe side earn a credible 1-1 draw against Manchester United in the Europa League on Thursday night.

Fener rallied after going into the break behind to fight back for a point, with Mourinho suggesting after the match that his side were much closer to winning the match than their illustrious opponents in Istanbul.

Matheus Nunes was in fine form for Manchester City in their 5-0 victory over Sparta Prague in the Champions League at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday evening.

The Portuguese international midfielder rounded off the night when he earned and converted a late penalty. Nunes had already recorded two assists, for John Stones and a spectacular effort from Erling Haaland, stating his case for more opportunities in the Premier League.

José Mourinho’s Fenerbahçe host his former club Manchester United in the Europa League on Thursday, with the match representing an opportunity to quell increasing criticism of the Portuguese boss in Türkiye

Fener have made a reasonable start in European competition this term, but the nature of their performances under Mou have been questioned, particularly after Sunday’s 2-2 draw at Samsunspor in the Super Lig.

Portuguese forward Jota is off the mark with new club Rennes, after scoring a late equaliser to give his side a 1-1 draw at Brest in France on Saturday.

Jota was a late arrival at Rennes towards the end of the transfer window in an €8m deal from Saudi Arabians Al-Ittihad. Although yet to start for the Brittany outfit, this weekend saw the former Benfica man score his first goal in new colours in Ligue 1.
