Bernard Mensah scores stunning free-kick in Kayserispor defeat to Fenerbahce

Bernard Mensah scored a stunning free-kick as Kayserispor’s only goal in their 2-1 defeat against Fenerbahce in a Turkish Super Lig match on Friday.

After a goalless first-half in Istanbul, the Ghana international stepped forward to take a free-kick just before the hour-mark and he fired Kayserispor ahead with his right-footed shot placed to the top corner.

The 59th-minute strike gave Kayserispor a glimpse of hope in their relegation battle until two late goals from Fenerbahce condemned them to defeat.
