## Mourinho Gets Red Card As Fenerbahce Holds Man United To 1

### Mourinho Sent Off After Confrontation with Referee

Manchester United Manager Jose Mourinho was sent off in the first half of the club's 1-1 draw with Fenerbahce in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday.

The incident occurred in the 42nd minute when referee Cuneyt Cakir awarded Fenerbahce a free-kick on the edge of United's penalty area. Mourinho, visibly frustrated with the decision, exchanged heated words with Cakir before being shown a red card.

### Martial Gives United the Lead

Despite Mourinho's absence, United took the lead just five minutes later when Anthony Martial found the net to put the visitors ahead.

### Fenerbahce Equalizes in the Second Half

However, Fenerbahce drew level in the second half through a stunning strike from Moussa Sow. The Senegalese striker fired a powerful left-footed shot into the top corner of the net from outside the box.

### Frustration for Mourinho

The draw marked a frustrating night for Mourinho, who was returning to the club where he spent a year as manager in 2005-06. The result leaves United in second place in Group A, three points behind leaders Feyenoord.

### What's Next?

With two games remaining in the group stage, United will travel to Ukraine to face Zorya Luhansk on November 3. Fenerbahce, meanwhile, will host Feyenoord in a crucial clash for first place.
