The hosts had to come from behind after conceding an early goal from Torgeir Borven (16′).
They leveled just before the break through Senegalese striker, Mame Biram Diouf (45′).
The 33 year-old would add a second after the restart, converting from the spot to complete the turn around for Hatayspor.
Then came the moment for David, who took responsibility to score (65′) from the spot for a penalty he won.
He then added a second, dominating play on the right wing, he worked his marker before unleashing a belter in the near post.
The victory moved Hatayspor to just three points of the top four spot and puts them in contention for a European place.
