The 30-year-old center-back played the full 90 minutes of the match, contributing significantly to the team’s clean sheet.
Moroccan international Youssef En-Nesyri opened the scoring in the 15th minute, and former Manchester City striker Edin Džeko sealed the deal with a second-half goal, securing the crucial three points for Fenerbahçe.
Djiku played a pivotal role in the victory, completing 89 accurate passes, winning 2 ground duels, 3 aerial duels, and making 3 interceptions. His impressive performance earned him a 7.8 rating from SofaScore..
Fenerbahçe, currently third in the league table with 20 points from 9 matches, remains undefeated in their last three matches. With Jose Mourinho at the helm, the team is poised to challenge for top honours. Djiku, who has made 13 appearances this season, is an integral part of Fenerbahçe’s defensive line and will be crucial in their pursuit of success.
Fenerbahçe will face Trabzonspor on November 3rd in their next league match.
