In the 28th minute, Yusef N-Necili scored in a lightning-fast counterattack. Mourinho immediately turned around and faced the stands and celebrated with excitement. However, before the joy dissipated, the border hierarchy raised the flag to signal offside, and the penalty was very barely imposed.

Then, referee Kovac suspended the game and listened to VAR's opinions. Mourinho mistakenly thought VAR confirmed that the goal was valid, but turned around to celebrate again! The final result was that Kovac signaled that the goal was invalid. This scene made the "special one" walk back to the coach's seat with a look of astonishment and helplessness.

This regret became deeper after just over 10 minutes - Feyenoord defender Takashi Watanabe scored a header and rewritten the total score of the two-round rounds to 3-1. But Fenerbahce did not collapse. Archie Brown took the lead in recovering one goal, and then John Duran won another goal in stoppage time in the first half to tie the total score to 3-3!

Entered the second half, former Manchester United midfielder Fred scored a wonderful ground-breaking strike, helping Fenerbahce to overtake the total score to 4-3! Eun-Necili then expanded the overall score advantage to 5-3. Although Watanabe just grabbed the score to 5-4 at one point, Talisca's goal finally secured the victory, freeing the total score of the two rounds at 6-4.

This victory sends Fenerbahce to the Champions League qualifiers In the final round, they will compete with the winner between Benfica and Nice for a valuable UEFA Champions League play-off ticket.
