Fenerbahce won their sixth Turkish Cup by beating Trabzonspor thanks to an early goal of Moussa Sow.             
 
Fenerbahce lifted the Turkish Cup trophy  after defeating Trabzonspor  with a solitary goal by striker Moussa Sow in the season finale played in Ankara. Fenerbahce, runners-up in the league and semifinalists of UEFA’s Europa League competition, were on the top of the podium of the Turkish Cup for the second time in a row.


 Fenerbahce had also won the trophy last year, after 25 years of drought in the competition.

Trabzonspor, who struggled  in the league , were better side in the first minutes of the game with Olcan Adın coming very near to opening the score. However, it was Fenerbahce who found the net when Sow volleyed past the goalkeeper Onur Kıvrak an incisive pass from Mehmet Topal in the 9th minute.

Fenerbahce managed to hold off their rivals, especially during the second half and cruised to their sixth Cup glory.

Aykut Kocaman’s Fenerbahce also broke the record of the most official matches played by a Turkish team in a season, with 65 games.
