Beşiktaş beat Erzurumspor FK 3-0 at Tüpraş Stadium in the fifth week of the Süper Lig to claim their third consecutive league victory and move to 12 points.
Erzurumspor FK started the match quickly and came close to scoring in the 2nd minute when Oh found himself one-on-one with goalkeeper Ertuğrul, but the Beşiktaş goalkeeper kept the ball out with his feet. Beşiktaş tested the opposition goal with Cerny’s shot in the 5th minute.
Beşiktaş scored twice in the first half
Beşiktaş took the lead in the 21st minute. Emirhan Topçu rose at the near post from Orkun Kökçü’s corner from the right and headed the ball into the net.
The lead was doubled in the 27th minute. After exchanging passes with Oh, Trossard entered the penalty area and put the South Korean player’s cutback from near the six-yard box into the net. The goal was the Belgian footballer’s first for Beşiktaş in the league.
Later in the first half, goalkeeper Ertuğrul denied Olaitan with a shot. Ertuğrul also tipped Oh’s header over for a corner in the 45+1st minute, preventing the lead from being extended. The first half ended with Beşiktaş leading 2-0.
