Live broadcast on August 11th, in the first round of the Turkish Super League, Fenerbahce coached by Mourinho defeated Demirspor 1-0 to get off to a good start. After the game, Mourinho was interviewed and talked about the game.

Talking about the difference between Fenerbahce's first league game and other teams he coached, Mourinho said: "I have never lost the first league game. Therefore, I can say that nothing has changed in 24 years.

“Only two seasons started with a draw, but I won the Champions League in those seasons. We wanted to finish the game as soon as possible. We started with high morale.

"At half-time, based on my experience, I told the players 'the opponents will try to keep the score at 1-0 until the end'.

"Maximilian couldn't play the full 90 minutes. After a certain point, we focused on keeping the scoreline. In my opinion, it could have been bigger. I also want to congratulate my colleague for playing a 15-year-old goalkeeper. I also want to congratulate the player."

"I shared my thoughts with the referee after the game that the opposing coach will try everything to get a result. A weaker team might have adopted a different strategy to get a result here.
