Trabzonspor:1 Beşiktaş:0

The Black Eagles lost 1-0 away to Trabzonspor at Hüseyin Avni Eker Stadium on Day 7 of the Turkish Super League.

The home team started off to the better side and had the first clear-cut opportunity of the game through Teolfilo on 11 minutes, but Beşiktaş keeper Hakan Arıkan pulled off a brilliant save to prevent him from scoring. Using Yattara’s quick runs from the left intended for the striker Teofilo, Trabzonspor dominated the first 20 minutes, but a Zapotocny marshalled Beşiktaş defence ensured that the score remained intact. As the half proceeded, the Black and White, led by Hilbert, began to find their feet and even hit the post in the closing stages, only to see the first 45 minutes end in a goalless draw. 
The Eagles carried their attacking mode into the second half as a Holosko header off Tabata’s free-kick went inches wide at the outset. After two ensuing crosses produced no goals, defender Mustafa Yumlu put the home side ahead with a header from a free-kick on 50 minutes. In search of a quick equaliser, Beşiktaş brought on the extra striker Bobo for Ernst but still could not penetrate the Trabzonspor’s solid defensive wall. The remaining minutes saw the Black and White throwing everything to salvage the match, but Trabzonspor successfully fended off their visitors’ all attempts to run out 1-0 victors.
