Fenerbahce continued its strong form by defeating Antalyaspor 3-0. Capitalizing on Galatasaray’s slip-up, Fenerbahce maintained its pursuit of the top spot in the Super Lig.

Legendary coach Jose Mourinho has made history, becoming the first foreign manager since former Fenerbahce head coach late Christoph Daum to achieve nine consecutive home victories with Fenerbahce.

A historic achievement after 20 years

Mourinho’s achievement marks the first time a foreign coach has led Fenerbahce to nine straight home wins since Daum’s reign in 2004-2005. This is also Mourinho’s first such streak since his time at Chelsea between August 2014 and January 2015.

Fenerbahce supporters showed their full backing for Mourinho, displaying a banner during the Antalyaspor match that read, “We stand with you.”

In the second half of the season, Fenerbahce secured six wins and a draw against Galatasaray, amassing 19 points out of a possible 21.
