Besiktas v Zeytinburnu 26.9.1993 & v IFC Kosice 29.9.1993













A league match between Besiktas and Zeytinburnu. It ended 2-2 in front of just 8,000 people (including about 400 away fans). I found out that Besiktas were due to play in the European Cup Winners Cup 1st round 2nd Leg just a few days later so I had to go to that one as well!





View of the ground from our hotel, people were in the stadium and it was just after 2pm from an 8pm kick off!!!




The atmosphere starts to build!






..............a totally different atmosphere for the big game...........


................yes Besiktas have just taken a 1-0 lead................


................the players can just about see to restart the match.................

Ex Coventry City manager Gordon Milne was in charge of Besiktas. Thay won 1-0 on aggregate and this was the first time they had ever won a European tie!
