Fenerbahce thrash Corum 5-0 as Belozoglu starts with win

Fenerbahce beat Corum FK 5-0 away in the Turkish Super Lig on Sunday, in the first match under new head coach Emre Belozoglu, Turkey's state-run news agency Anadolu Agency reported.

The result ended Fenerbahce's two-match losing streak in the league and lifted the Istanbul club to fifth place in the standings with 19 points from 11 matches.

Mason Greenwood and Irfan Can Kahveci each scored twice, while Oguz Aydin added the fifth goal to complete the rout.

Greenwood opened the scoring in the 12th minute, running into the penalty area after Oguz Aydin started a counterattack with a long pass from his own half.

Irfan Can Kahveci doubled the lead in the 21st minute, scoring his 200th appearance goal for Fenerbahce from around 25 yards after Ismail Yuksek won the ball in Corum's half and Romelu Lukaku set him up.

Fenerbahce led 2-0 at halftime.

Irfan Can Kahveci completed his brace in the 56th minute, curling a right-footed shot into the top corner after receiving a pass from Matteo Guendouzi near the penalty area.

Greenwood scored his second in the 63rd minute, finishing first-time into the bottom corner after Levent Mercan sent a low pass from the left side of the box.

Oguz Aydin scored the final goal with a close-range finish at the far post, after substitute Kerem Akturkoglu sent a low cross into the area following a pass from fellow substitute Vedat Muriqi.

The win came in Belozoglu's first game in charge, after the club's recent struggles in the domestic league.

The victory also followed Fenerbahce's Champions League win over Liverpool on Wednesday, which the club built on in the league match.

Corum FK remained ninth in the table with 16 points after the defeat.

The Turkish Super Lig is the top professional football division in Turkey, and results there shape the race for European places and the title.
