Osimhen's Galatasaray to square up against Mourinho again following racism accusations

Both teams are set to face each other following their recent clash that ended in a 0-0 draw a few weeks ago.

Following the draw, Mourinho was accused of racism after he said that Galatasaray players were jumping like monkeys.

The situation became a very delicate one that led to the Turkish league leaders filing a racial complaint against the Portuguese coach.

The draw for the quarterfinal of the Turkish Cup has been revealed earlier today, with Galatasaray facing their archrivals Fenerbahçe.

The draw was confirmed by Fenerbahçe’s official X account with the caption, “Our opponent in the Ziraat Türkiye Kupası Quarter Final matchup is Galatasaray.

“The match will be played as a single-elimination game between April 1-3 at @ulkerstadyumu.”

Both teams will be meeting for the third time this season, with Galatasaray winning their first meeting early in the season and playing a goalless draw in the return leg.

Victor Osimhen, who has been instrumental for the Lions, will hope to get his team to the next round at the expense of Mourinho’s Fenerbahçe.

The Nigerian international has scored 22 goals and five assists in 27 appearances this season for Galatasaray and are currently top of the Turkish League table.
