Galatasaray Fans Mock Fenerbahçe And Mourinho With Fake Funeral After Securing League Title

Galatasaray fans took their celebrations to another level after clinching their 25th Turkish Süper Lig title, mocking rivals Fenerbahçe and their manager José Mourinho with a dramatic display. Following their dominant 3-0 victory over Kayserispor, which sealed the championship, supporters staged a symbolic “funeral” for Fenerbahçe, complete with coffin displays painted in their rival’s blue and yellow colors.

The rivalry between the two Istanbul giants has always been intense, but this year’s title win added extra fuel to the fire. Fans didn’t stop at taunting Fenerbahçe—they also targeted Mourinho, plastering images of him crying on mock tombstones and banners. Some even labeled him “The Crying One,” a twist on his famous self-proclaimed title “The Special One”.

The feud between Mourinho and Galatasaray boss Okan Buruk has been brewing for months, with tensions escalating after a controversial moment in the Turkish Cup when Mourinho pinched Buruk’s nose during a heated exchange. Now, with Galatasaray officially crowned champions and Fenerbahçe left empty-handed, fans are reveling in their triumph while making sure their rivals feel the sting of defeat.

Galatasaray’s latest title win cements their status as Turkey’s most successful club, allowing them to add a fifth star to their badge. Meanwhile, Mourinho’s future at Fenerbahçe remains uncertain, with speculation growing about whether he will stay or seek a return to European football.

The celebrations in Istanbul are expected to continue for days, as Galatasaray fans bask in their victory while their rivals are left to regroup and plan for next season.
