The Turkish football federation imposed a four-match suspension and a fine exceeding 40,000 euros on Fenerbahce's coach Jose Mourinho on Thursday for his remarks following a tense Istanbul derby against Galatasaray.
The 62-year-old manager's post-match statement included a description of the home bench "jumping like monkeys" after the goalless draw on Monday.

Reports indicate that Mourinho continued his critical stance towards Turkish match officials.
The Turkish football federation's disciplinary committee imposed a four-match ban, with two matches for remarks directed at the fourth official and two additional matches for his comment on the Galatasaray dugout.
They were judged "contrary to sporting ethics".
The federation also levied a fine of approximately 42,000 euros on Mourinho, whose side currently sits six points behind table-toppers Galatasaray.
