The visiting Black Eagles came out of the gates all guns blazing and went ahead after 8 minutes with a close-range finish from Anderson Talisca. Then, a Rodallega own goal, off Caner Erkin’s clever cross, in the added time gave Beşiktaş a comfortable 2-0 lead for the first half. Backed by solid defence and good goalkeeping, the reigning champions kept the game under control in the second 45 minutes to pick up those precious three points.
