THE BIGGER PICTURE
Mourinho's good mood might have had something to do with the way the match was panning out, with his side cruising into the last 16 of the Europa League. Fenerbahce earned a 3-0 aggregate lead in the first leg last week and a 2-2 draw at Anderlecht was enough to seal comfortable qualification.

DID YOU KNOW?
The crowd trouble was cleared up after a 15-minute delay, when the players were sent inside into the dressing rooms having initially attempted to reason with the fighting fans themselves. Fenerbahce's Bright Osayi-Samuel was seen demanding that security staff break up the incident but was dragged away by team-mates.

WHAT NEXT FOR FENERBAHCE?
