Excitement for the 4000th goal at Fenerbahçe!

Fenerbahçe could not experience the joy of the 4000th goal. Facing Rizespor, Fenerbahçe was unable to score their 4000th goal in the league.

Fenerbahçe's milestone goals came in the following order:

First goal: Ergun Öztuna

1000th goal: Erol Togay

2000th goal: Uche
