Eagles come from two goals down to salvage a point at Başakşehir

M. Başakşehir 2-2 Beşiktaş

Beşiktaş found a couple of good chances with Mario Gomez early on, but the German striker failed to put them away. Then, Visca gave the home side 1-0 lead with low effort from just inside the box and closed the scoring for the first half.  The Eagles started the second frame determined to get the equaliser, but Mahmut doubled Başakşehir’s advantage through a 54th-minute header. However, back-to-back headers from the sub Cenk Tosun and Atiba Hutchinson coming late in the game enabled Beşiktaş to walk off with a valuable away point.
