Benfica manager explained: Why wasn't Kerem Aktürkoğlu in the victory pose?

Fenerbahçe, which has been missing the Champions League for 16 years, lost 1-0 to Benfica in the Champions League play-off match played yesterday.

The goal that pushed Fenerbahçe, who will compete in the Europa League for the rest of the season, out of the Champions League came from national football player Kerem Aktürkoğlu, whose name has long been associated with Fenerbahçe.

WHY DIDN'T HE TAKE PART IN THE WINNING POSE?

Kerem Aktürkoğlu, the architect of Benfica's victory, was not included in the photo as he posed with the team in the dressing room after securing the Champions League ticket.

Bruno Lage, explaining Aktürkoğlu's absence from the photo, said , " Kerem Aktürkoğlu was not in the post-match photo because he went for a routine doping test."
