Visiting Black Eagles started their away Super League fixture uncharacteristically sluggish but gained an important advantage when the ejection of Edin Visca reduced Trabzonspor to ten men after 13 minutes. Ironically, a header from Okay Yokuşlu put the short-handed home side 1-0 in front four minutes later. Beşiktaş recovered eventually and levelled the matters through Gedson Fernandes’ classy finish before the half time.
With an extra man on the pitch, Black Eagles pinned the home side into their own end after the restart and created several serious chances for the winner but just couldn’t find the back of the net.
