Neither side asserted much dominance in the first 45 minutes, but the Eagles were stunned in stoppage time when Sapara finished well and put the visitors unexpectedly in front just before the break. Beşiktaş regained the lost confidence on 55 minutes as they equalised with a superb free-kick from Fernandes. From thereon, the Black and Whites created numerous chances to take the lead but failed to convert them and had to settle for a point.
