Black Eagles hammer Kasımpaşa 3-0 in replay

In the replay ordered by the Turkish Football Federation, the visitors Beşiktaş defeated Kasımpaşa easily at the Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadium tonight and moved a step closer to the top. With goals from Hugo Almeida, Pedro Franco and Veli Kavlak, they enjoyed a 3-0 lead at half-time. After defender Serdar Kurtuluş received his second yellow card for a rough tackle early in the second half, the short-handed Eagles had to push back, but their spirited defence were able to keep the home side at bay rest of the way. Beşiktaş’ victory closed the gap on Super League leaders Fenerbahçe to five points.
