LONDON (Hurriyet Daily News ) - English football giant Manchester United demolished Istanbul-based Fenerbahçe 4-1 in a UEFA Europa League Group A game late on Oct. 20, as Fenerbahçe’s troubled start to the season goes from bad to worse.
The hosts took the lead in the 31st minute when French star Paul Pogba converted a penalty kick.        

Manchester United doubled the score three minutes later after another Frenchman, forward Anthony Martial, scored yet another penalty.        

A strike by Pogba from 25 meters out during injury time in the first half beat goalkeeper Volkan Demirel and meant Manchester United went in at half time three goals up at Old Trafford.        

English midfielder Jesse Lingard made it four with a shot from outside the penalty area in the second half.        
Fenerbahçe got a consolation goal in the 83rd minute when former Manchester United forward Robin van Persie put the ball into his old team’s net with a close-range finish.
       
Two-goal Pogba was named player of the match by UEFA.        

Meanwhile, the two other Turkish teams playing in the Europa League on the same night drew against their opponents.        

Atiker Konyaspor drew 1-1 against Portugal’s Braga in a Group H match in Konya, while Osmanl?spor and Spanish team Villarreal drew 2-2 in a Group L match in Ankara.
