First win in Holland

The Black Eagles posted the first win of their 6-day camp in Holland with a 2-1 victory over the Greek side Ergotelis.

Starting with line-up of Cenk Gönen, İsmail Köybaşı, İbrahim Toraman, Ekrem Dağ, Mehmet Aurelio, Guti, Almeida, Simao, Bebe, Fernandes and  Sivok, Beşiktaş looked the better side in the first half and went ahead one minute before the break, thanks to Sivok’s well-timed header off Hernades’ corner-kick.
 
In the second half, caretaker Manager Carvalhal sent in Quaresma to create more cracks in Greek team’s defence. His move paid off handsomely after two minutes as Beşiktaş stormed out in front 2-0 on another header, this time from Aurelio. Karalis pulled one back for Ergolitis at the 80th-minute mark, but it was too little and too late as the Black and Whites ran out 2-1 victors.
