Fenerbahce shock Manchester United

Roared on by home fans in their 50,000 capacity stadium on the Asian side of Istanbul, Fenerbahce produced a stunning performance capped by a brilliant Moussa Sow bicycle-kick goal and a Jeremain Lens free-kick.

Wayne Rooney managed to pull a goal back to create a tense final few minutes but it did nothing to brighten a miserable night for United.

United now face a tense three-way battle for qualification from Group A with Fenerbahce and Feyenoord who they now trail by one point after four games played.

Even more crucially, United must resurrect their form in the Premier League going into a crucial clash with relegation-threatened Swansea on Sunday after a bruising 4-0 defeat by Chelsea and a nervy 0-0 draw with Burnley.

Mourinho said that the team had been caught "sleeping" and had failed to heed his warnings over the toughness of playing away matches in Istanbul.

He admitted the game had also exposed the lack of proper central defenders in the side and the lack of confidence in front of goal.

"What disappointed me more is I have quite a big experience of playing against Turkish teams," said the former Real Madrid and Chelsea boss.

"I passed all my experience. Play against them in our home is easy... you come to Turkey and it's completely different.

"I told them to wait for that and not be focused on the game we had at home.
