Fenerbahce had some road to ply given the margin rivals Galatasaray had opened on them in the Super Lig title race, and the Yellow Canaries steadily kicking into gear under Jose Mourinho took a giant stride this afternoon.
Ex-Ajax star Dusan Tadic set the tone, as he opened the scoring from the penalty spot inside seven minutes, before Fred set up Oguz Aydin for the second, signalling a goal fest.
Aydin fired again just before the half-hour mark to put Mourinho's side three up. However, just before half-time they saw their clean sheet swept away after an Alexander Djiku own-goal.
The hosts threatened a comeback when Dimitris Kolovetsios made it 3-2, but Youssef En-Nesyri soon restored Fenerbahce's two-goal advantage for his third strike of the campaign.
Summer loanee Filip Kostic made it five in the 85th minute before Sebastian Szymanski closed off the scoring moments later.
