ISTANBUL, Turkey -- Three points from Sukru Saracoglu Stadium as Fenerbahce stunned Manchester United 2-1 in their Europa League clash.
1. Man United extend their dismal away run of results
Manchester United's wretched European away form continued as Fenerbahçe scored two magnificent goals against them without reply in Istanbul. The 1,200 travelling United fans present for the Europa League match have now seen their side lose seven and draw one of their last eight matches on the continent. After Thursday's 2-1 defeat, United slump to third in Group A with two games to play.
Fenerbahçe started the night two points behind a United side who defeated them 4-1 two weeks ago in Manchester but the hosts got off to the perfect start in the second minute when full-back Hasan Ali Kalirim crossed from the left towards Moussa Sow, who started ahead of Robin van Persie.
