Andre Ayew came off the bench to help Fenebache beat Russian side Zenit St Petersburg in the first leg of the Europa League round of 32.

The Ghana international came on for Eljif Elmas in the 72nd minute as the Turkish giants take the advantage from the first leg.

Nigeria forward Victor Moses set up the only goal of the game as he knocked on a corner to Islam Slimani to smash home.

Zenit, in their first competitive game for two months, missed a penalty when Robert Mak's kick was brilliantly tipped on to the bar by Harun Tekin.

The game was being played on Tuesday because Fener's Istanbul rivals Galatasaray are at home on Thursday.
