Fenerbahçe's head coach Jose Mourinho made striking statements after their 3-0 victory against Kasımpaşa. Mourinho praised the opponent, who fielded a U19 team, and also shared his views on the TFF's foreign VAR decision. "A GREAT EXPERIENCE FOR THEM"In his statement, Jose Mourinho said, "We should have respected the Kasımpaşa players. We analyzed the match they played against a 2nd League team. We thought something similar could happen. I congratulate them for their effort. After the match, I congratulated their players and coaches. We did what was necessary during the match. The young players fought well. They will use this to develop. It’s a great experience for them." "MODERN FOOTBALL IS LIKE THIS NOW"The Portuguese coach stated, "I call this tactical culture. My players need to learn to play differently on the field. Modern football is like this. Nothing is fixed. Football is not like it was years ago. Years ago, it would be said that this team plays with this system, but it’s not like that anymore. When the dynamics change, my players need to be able to do different things." "THEY WORKED LIKE CLOCKWORK"Speaking about the Kasımpaşa team, Mourinho said; "I congratulated the Kasımpaşa players. It’s not that it could have been different because we didn’t want it to be, but it was a different score because they stopped us. I congratulated them. We didn’t score in the second half. We didn’t do well enough, and they fought well. They were very organized defensively, they worked like clockwork." TFF'S FOREIGN VAR DECISIONRegarding the TFF's foreign VAR decision, the experienced coach said, "It can't be worse than before. It’s impossible for it to be worse than before, impossible! I’m looking at it positively. Let’s wait and see."
