BOLU REMEMBERED

Fenerbahçe players also did not perform a fist show during the warm-up.
TRIBUNES REMAINED SILENT IN KADIKÖY

Fenerbahçe players also entered the warm-up with a banner saying, "May our heads be held high." Beşiktaş stands had also performed a similar gesture during the match against Athletic Bilbao.
5 CHANGES FROM MOURINHO
Fenerbahçe's head coach Jose Mourinho made 5 changes, 4 of which were mandatory, compared to the starting 11 in their last league match against Adana Demirspor. The experienced coach could not utilize Mert Müldür, who started in the first 11 against Adana Demirspor, due to suspension, and Filip Kostic, Levent Mercan, and Oğuz Aydın were not included in the UEFA list. The 61-year-old coach benched Edin Dzeko, who started in the first 11 against Adana Demirspor. Mourinho, who played İrfan Can Eğribayat in goal against Lyon, assigned Alexander Djiku, Çağlar Söyüncü, and Yusuf Akçiçek in his three-man defense. In midfield, Sofyan Amrabat and Fred Rodrigues played, while Bright Osayi-Samuel and Sebastian Szymanski were given chances on the wings. Dusan Tadic and İrfan Can Kahveci played behind the striker, while Youssef En-Nesyri was preferred in the goal-scoring positions.
YUSUF AKÇİÇEK STARTED IN EUROPE FOR THE FIRST TIME
Fenerbahçe's young defender Yusuf Akçiçek started in the first 11 for the Lyon match, marking his first appearance in a European match this season. The 18-year-old defender had only started in the official matches in the Ziraat Turkey Cup against Kasımpaşa this season. Yusuf, who was included in the game in the last minutes of the match against Slavia Prague, had also come off the bench in 2 league matches. The young defender was watched by the German giant Bayern Munich during this match.
FENERBAHÇE'S RED CARD PROTEST
Kumbedi, who plays for the French team, made a very harsh foul on Sebastian Szymanski in the 31st minute. After this foul, Fenerbahçe players and coaching staff protested for a red card. İrfan Can Kahveci received a yellow card after his protests to the match referee Simone Sozza following this incident, and there was no warning from VAR to Sozza regarding the incident. The Italian referee punished the 19-year-old young defender with a yellow card after the foul that caused the red card discussions.
FOFANA INJURED
Malick Fofana, who plays for Lyon, could not continue the match due to his injury. The 19-year-old Belgian player left the field accompanied by medical staff and was replaced by Alexandre Lacazette in the 43rd minute.
LYON'S RED CARD TURNED TO YELLOW
In the 45+3rd minute, Niakhate made a late challenge on İrfan Can while trying to prevent him from getting the ball. Referee Simone Sozza issued a red card after Niakhate's intervention. After receiving a warning from VAR, the match referee Simone Sozza reviewed the incident on the screen for a while. After his review, the Italian referee canceled the red card and issued a yellow card to Niakhate. Following this incident, the first half of the match ended in a goalless draw.
EN-NESYRI'S GOAL WAS DISALLOWED
Fenerbahçe, who started the second half quickly, found the goal in the 55th minute. After Fred received the ball in the right diagonal of the penalty area and passed it in front of the goal, En-Nesyri controlled the ball and sent it into the net, but the match referee Diego Sozza disallowed the goal, claiming that the Moroccan star had handled the ball. As no goals were scored in the remaining minutes of the match, the fans left the field with a 0-0 draw.
