Beşiktaş 3-1 Eskişehirspor

With 3 goals from their Portuguese stars, the Black Eagles beat visitors Eskişehirspor 3-1 in a Super League clash at the Inonu Stadium tonight.

The match started evenly with both sides concentrating on midfield and creating half chances. But on 25 minutes, Erkan Zengin put Eskişehirspor ahead after being nicely set up following a free kick. The score stood at 1-0 until the 37th minute when Fernandes levelled the scores with a commendable individual effort that saw him cut in from the left, dribble past a couple of defenders and find the net from the tightest of angles. The teams went into half time with a 1-1 draw.
Beşiktaş were definitely the better side in the second half, and a well-timed header from Almedia fired them in front after 57 minutes. Another Portuguese Simoa put the game away with an 87th-minute penalty as the Turkish Cup winners ran out 3-1 victors.
