The incident took place in the second half of their league match on Sunday after Edin Dzeko’s goal was ruled out due to an offside. Mourinho, in protest that the referee had taken a wrong step for the disallowed goal, decided to place his laptop in front of the BeIN Sports cameras to show a still image of the incident.
The referee of the match, Cihan Aydin, booked the 61-year-old manager for his protest as he proceeded to show him a yellow card in the 78th minute.

Fenerbahce went on to win the game 2-0 thanks to a Dusan Tadic strike and an own goal from Thalisson Kelven. Speaking after the match, the Portuguese former Manchester United, Chelsea, and Real Madrid manager told reporters he believed his striker Edin Dzeko was onside and displayed a frame from the buildup to the strike to prove his point.
“For us, it’s a good goal." “I like good VAR... I just want a VAR that helps the referee to take the right decisions.”
Fenerbahce is currently in second place in the Super Lig, having only lost one match in the league to their rivals Galatasaray. They have earned 16 points from seven games and are three points behind the unbeaten leader, Galatasaray.
