mourinho aims subtle dig at osimhen over penalty goals after fenerbahce win

Fenerbahce boss Jose Mourinho appeared to aim a thinly veiled dig at Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen after his side secured a confident 3-1 victory over Sivasspor on Sunday in the Turkish Super Lig, Soccernet.ng reports .

Goals from Anderson Talisca in the first half and a second-half brace from Duan Tadic saw Fenerbahce cruise to their 22nd win of a highly impressive campaign.

Youssef En-Nesyri, Mourinho's marquee summer signing from Sevilla , came off the bench for the final 10 minutes, replacing Edin Deko.

Despite a recent goal drought, the Moroccan remains Fenerbahce's top scorer across all competitions with 26 goals this season - 16 of them coming in 27 league appearances.

However, Mourinho was quick to defend the 27-year-old, drawing a sharp contrast with Galatasaray forward Osimhen, who leads the Super Lig scoring charts with 21 goals.
