The Turkish Super Lig leaders ran out 1-0 winners at the Gaziantep Stadium thanks to a goal from Ahmed Kutucu.

However, the host should have had a chance to level the game from the spot after Sanchez’s blatant handball.

The former Spurs man’s arm was well away from his body as it was struck by the ball.

Mourinho, 62, took massive issue with the lack of intervention by the referee.

The former Chelsea, Manchester United and Spurs manager posted on Instagram a picture of the offence by his former player.

He added a caption in which he referenced the Portugal Handball team in a bizarre dig at the referees.

He wrote: “In the Handball World Cup that ended last Sunday, my Portugal brilliantly reached the semifinals and I want to congratulate them for such an achievement and the impact they will create on our country’s youth.”

It is not the first time Mourinho has hit out at the level of officiating in Turkey since being appointed Fenerbahce manager.

In November, he launched a scathing rant at referees after Trabzonspor were handed two controversial penalties.

Last month, in another rant, he branded Turkey’s top-flight as “toxic” after multiple bad challenges from Hatayspor players.
