Ibrahim Olawoyin gave the visitors Rizespor an early lead just 5 minutes after the kick-off, but Omar Colley levelled matters for Beşiktaş with a close-range finish two minutes later. Black Eagles pushed for the go-ahead goal in the remainder of the first half, but it was 1-1 at half-time. Beşiktaş continued to search for the winner in the second half, and their dream came true on 65 minutes when Milot Rashica found the back of the net with a well-timed header. However, Emir Han Topçu struck back immediately with a header of his own to equalise the scores one more time after 68 minutes. Nevertheless, the stubborn Black Eagles would not let the three points slip through their claws as an injury-time goal from Joe Worrall put them in front for the final time.
