Eagles returning home from Kayseri empty-handed

The home team started strong and raced into a 1-0 lead through Troisi after just two minutes. Black Eagles would not lie down and piled on the pressure for the equaliser, but Kayserispor keeper Navarro kept a clean sheet with a string of fine saves. They found themselves in a deeper hole in the 41st minute when Fernandes was shown his second yellow and sent off. In the second half, the short-handed Beşiktaş tired everything in the book to get on level terms, only to see home side defend well and come away with three points.
