Following the Black and White’s 2-0 away win to Trabzonspor, Beşiktaş Manager Mustafa Denizli assessed his team’s performance:

\"We were extremely pleased to pick up three points from this away match. Trabzonsor are probably the most difficult side to beat on their home ground. They impose pressure on you right from the start. You have no other choice but to stay in your own half and rely solely on counter-attacks. If we could break out of our own half quickly, we knew we had a chance to catch them off guard and that’s exactly what happened. We first weathered their attacks and then struck back with fast counter-attacks. Our performance in first half might lead someone to think that we would be happy to walk away with a point. But let me assure you once gain; Beşiktaş always play to win; not prepared to settle for a draw. We executed our game plan perfectly in this match and deserved to win.”
