The Yellow Canaries conceded an early goal in the 8th minute through Konyaspor's Mahlangu but went on full attack after that with the team creating many chances for out of form strikers Moussa Sow and Emmanuel Emenike who failed to convert any of their chances.
Soon after the goal Konyaspor's coach Aykut Kocaman who coached Fenerbahce for three years between 2010 and 2013 made his team go all defensive; in a night that he might have been the final bullet in Fenerbahce's hopes to win the title this season.
It wasn't until the 67th minute that Fenerbahce got their goal through a header from centre-back Egemen Korkmaz.
Fenerbahce coach Ismail Kartal has also been criticized by some Turkish TV pundits for choosing to stick with the out of form forwards Sow and Emenike, and relying on Selcuk Sahin in the starting lineup when the likes of Webo, Emre and Diego were all available to start the match with.
Fenerbahce continue their surprising decline in form following last week's 2-1 home loss to Akhisar and now are second in the league with 47 points, 4 points behind first placed Galatasaray and equal on points with third placed Besiktas who host Balikesirspor tomorrow.
