In a crucial match of the 5th round of the Turkish Super League, Beşiktaş hosted Istanbul Bashakshehir. The match was as intense and dramatic as the fans expected.
Eldor Shomurodov started the game in the starting lineup for the visitors and played actively on the field. The Uzbekistan national team striker opened the scoring in the 71st minute with a precise shot, giving his team hope. However, later events didn't go as Bashakshehir expected. Eldor was substituted in the 85th minute.
The final minutes of the match were even more intense. Beşiktaş responded with two goals, turning the score in their favor. In the 89th minute, the Bashakshehir player received a second yellow card and left the field, leaving the team one man down. This shortcoming seriously affected the fate of the dispute.
In turn, Abbosbek Fayzullayev was brought onto the field in the 90+3rd minute and tried to help his team. However, the situation escalated in the final minutes: in the 90+8th minute, Besiktas player Orkun Kokchu received a red card and was sent off.
Thus, the victory went to Beşiktaş - 2:1. While Eldor Shomurodov's goal was a welcome one for the fans, the overall result disappointed Bashakshehir.
