Moroccan super midfielder Amrabat saves Jose Mourinho as Fenerbahce close in on Osimhen's Gala
Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahce secured a thrilling 3-2 victory against Trabzonspor, marking their second consecutive win in the Turkish Super Lig.
The match, held on Sunday, witnessed a dramatic comeback led by former Manchester United stars, with Sofyan Amrabat emerging as the hero.
Match Highlights
Fenerbahce found themselves trailing twice during the match but managed to equalize each time.
The decisive moment came in the dying minutes when Amrabat scored a stunning goal in the 90+12 minute, sealing the victory for his team.
Another former United midfielder, Fred, also played a crucial role by scoring one of the equalisers, demonstrating the effective partnership between the two players since their arrival at Fenerbahce.
This victory is significant for Mourinho as it not only boosts Fenerbahce's confidence but also narrows the gap to just five points behind rivals Galatasaray.
The Super Lig leaders who are armed with Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen on loan from Napoli have looked untouchable so far this term.
Osimhen's move has intensified the rivalry between the two Istanbul clubs, especially after he contributed to Galatasaray's recent successes.
Mourinho would be happy with his team's resilience and remarkable fighting spirit as highlighted by Amrabat's late goal.
With this win, Fenerbahce will be looking to build momentum as they aim to challenge for the league title against their fierce rivals
