Eagles come away from Antalya with three points

Beşiktaş defeat MP Antalyaspor 2-1

Teams played attacking football in the first 45 minutes, but neither side managed to break the deadlock as the half ended with no goals scored. But the Black Eagles looked more potent in the second half, and on 64 minutes, Almedia intercepted a back-pass to the keeper before rounding him with a nifty move and slotting it home, which put Beşiktaş on the scoresheet. Fernandes doubled the visitors’ lead in the 90th minute when he dribbled past the keeper and rolled the ball into the empty net. Tita’s injury-time penalty did not do much for the frustration of the home fans as the Eagles ran out 2-1 victors.
