Adana Demirspor achieved their first victory of the season, overcoming Beşiktaş 2-1 during their Süper Lig match held at the Yeni Adana Stadium. This match was particularly significant for Adana, as they had been at the bottom of the league table, and this win lifted them from the negative point zone.
The game commenced slowly for both teams, with early opportunities from Beşiktaş failing to hit the mark. The breakthrough came at the 31st minute when Adana Demirspor's Yusuf Barasi scored from close range after connecting with a corner kick taken by Yusuf Sarı. This goal ignited the home crowd, giving Adana the confidence they needed.
Just eight minutes later, Aimbetov added to the lead, finishing off another smooth move initiated by Yusuf Sarı, who skillfully maneuvered through the defense before delivering the ball to his teammate. With their two-goal advantage at halftime, Adana Demirspor was poised to secure the victory, leaving Beşiktaş trailing with much to prove.
Beşiktaş returned for the second half with increased determination, seeking to claw back the deficit. They found their opportunity at the 72nd minute when Al-Musrati headed the ball past Adana's goalkeeper, reducing the gap to 2-1. Despite this effort, the team's hopes were dashed when tensions mounted on the field.
Beşiktaş suffered a significant setback at the 76th minute when Tayyip Talha Sanuç was shown a red card for his foul on Yusuf Sarı, leaving his team with ten men. This dismissal proved detrimental, as the team struggled to organize themselves defensively.
The final moments of the game saw Beşiktaş pushing hard for the equalizer, but any efforts were thwarted by the disciplined Adana defense. The match concluded with Adana Demirspor celebrating their hard-fought victory, which marked their first points of the season - they had fallen to -1 due to previous penalties.
Coach Serdar Topraktepe and his players displayed resilience and determination throughout, exemplified by Maestro, who continued to play even after receiving devastating news about his brother's passing. This act of commitment did not go unnoticed, with former club president Murat Sancak offering his condolences on social media.
This shocking defeat is significant not only for the standing of Beşiktaş, who remains at 25 points, but also as it marks the first time they lost to a team with negative points. For Adana Demirspor, this victory is more than just three points; it symbolizes hope and determination, setting the foundation for potential recovery as they aim for a brighter future.
