RESERVES & YOUTH

A rare case of sportsmanship

In their hotly-contested league match against the visitors Kayseri Erciyessor this Sunday, Beşiktaş JK Academy U19s were awarded a penalty kick with only 18 minutes left on the clock. After discussing the matter with their coach, the junior Black Eagles did not attempt to score and rolled the ball back to the goal keeper (Watch the video). “We as a team believe in fair play regardless of the score. It was a harsh decision, and we did not want to take advantage of it,” said the Coach Yasin Sülün after the game which Beşiktaş won 3-2.
