Fenerbahce secured a comfortable away victory against Bodrumspor, who are fighting to avoid the relegation battle.

Jose Mourinho’s side continued their title chase and needed to get a win to put pressure on Galatasaray in the title race.

As it happened

Super Eagles star Bright Osayi was left on the bench for Fenerbahce following Nigeria’s disappointing 1-1 draw against Zimbabwe.

Fenerbahce took the lead in the fifth minute of the game from a Milan Skriniar header. However, the home side equalised in the 31st minute from the penalty spot.

Mourinho’s side took the lead two minutes after the equaliser after Youssef En Nesyri played a through ball to Oguz Aydin to give them the lead.
