The Turkish side took the lead in the 16th minute when a Crossfield ball met striker Joao Pedro who then smashed it into the goal, though the Cypriot outfit managed to draw level following a penalty from striker Ivan Trickovski which deflected in off the goalkeeper’s arm into the bottom right (52′).

Fenerbahce restored their advantage with their own penalty from marksman Michy Batshuayi, with the Belgian striking it into the top right (80′).

The Larnaca-based side had a moment of optimism when goalkeeper Kenan Piric dived successfully to his right to keep out forward Enner Valencia’s spot-kick (86′), but they couldn’t find an equaliser.
