The visiting Black Eagles looked superior in the first half but failed to break the scoreless deadlock. Beşiktaş had a golden chance to jump in front at the outset of the second half, but the midfielder Oğuzhan Özyakup missed the 59th-minute penalty-kick. Beşiktaş also lost the defender Tosic to red card 10 minutes later and had to continue a man short. Refusing to give up, the determined Turkish Champions managed to find back of the net after 79 minutes, through Ryan Babel who converted a one-on-one with the Karabukspor keeper, and the Eagles returned to Istanbul as 1-0 away winners.
