Watch: Fenerbahce 3-0 Fulham – Phillip Cocu Gives Youth A Chance

Fenerbahce beat Fulham 3-0 at the Stade Joseph-Moynat in France in a pre-season friendly today.

Giuliano opened the scoring for the Yellow Canaries backheeling in Mauricio Isla’s cross from close range.

The Yellow Canaries doubled their lead before half-time through Hasan Ali Kaldirim who beat the Fulham keeper with a fine finish.

Ozan Tufan wrapped up a comfortable victory over a young Fulham side with a shot – or was it a cross – from just outside the penalty area.

The victory was pretty impressive but what really stood out was recently appointed manager Phillip Cocu giving his new young guns playing time.

Fenerbahce has been a tough place for young players over the years. Rising stars have rarely been given a shot but the new management appear prepared for change.

Eighteen-year-old Elif Elmas started, 18-year-old wonder-kid Ferdi Kadioglu made his debut as did 21-year-old summer arrival Baris Alici.

The big question is whether Cocu will be brave enough to keep giving regular playing time to his youngsters.

The Yellow Canaries take on Feyenoord next on Saturday.
