In a focus game in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League qualifiers playoffs that ended in the early morning of August 28, Fenerbahce lost to Benfica 0-1 away, and was eliminated 0-1 in the total score and missed the Champions League main match this season. Fenerbahce scored 0 shots in the whole game, but was eliminated and convinced.

The two sides exchanged white papers at Fenerbahce at home, so they moved to Benfica's home court in the second leg. Whoever wins will advance to the Champions League this season.

On the opening 16 minutes, Benfica scored 1 goal, but Barrero was offside first, and Pavlidis' goal was invalid. In the 25th minute, Benfica scored another goal, Barrero made a foul first, and the header was invalid. In the 36th minute, Fenerbahce, who escaped two consecutive disasters, still lost the city gate. Barrero assisted, Aktilcoolu scored a goal with a volley, and Benfica led 1-0.

The change of sides and fight again, and in the 82nd minute, Fenerbahce was hit again. Talisca made continuous elbow strikes and was sent out with two yellow cards in two minutes. Fenerbahce was behind in the score and beat one less. Finally, after 5 minutes of stoppage time, Benfica eliminated Fenerbahce, who played ten players 1-0, and advanced to the Champions League.

And the 62-year-old Mourinho missed the opportunity to lead the team to the Champions League. Mourinho last led the team to the Champions League, which was already the 2019-20 season, when he led Tottenham to the semi-finals.

Since then, Mourinho has been in Rome and Fenerbahce, and has repeatedly missed the Champions League qualification: Rome lost the Europa League final, runner-up for two consecutive years, and was eliminated by Lille in the fourth round of the Champions League qualifier last season. This season, Mourinho's Fenerbahce fell in the key decisive round again, which is indeed regrettable.
