Fethiyespor got their new season underway with a 2-1 defeat, at Sanlifurfa last night.
After another busy summer in the transfer market with 15 new players brought in and 14 departing, Fethiye lined up with 4 players making their debuts with 5 more new boys on the bench. It was new signing Halil Peksen, a 25 year old right winger who gave Fethiye the perfect start, scoring after 3 mins. Fethiye held onto their lead until half time but the hosts equalised in the 46th minute and got a 2nd goal 8 mins later to condemn Fethiye to defeat.
Fethiye play their first home game on Saturday evening when they entertain Konya Selcukspor. Konya managed a 1-1 draw yesterday but they have won 1-0 and 2-0 on their last 2 visits to Fethiye over the last 2 seasons.
