44% Ball Possession BESIKTAS and 56% Ball Possession NAPOLI
Besiktas 1 – 1 Napoli 
78′ Ricardo Quaresma (pen) 82′ Marek Hamsik
Napoli still leading Group B with 7 points while Besiktas is in the 2nd position with 6 points. Beşiktaş is now 13 games unbeaten at home (W10 D3), since February. A familiar face in Besiktas is midfielder Gokhan Inler who played for Napoli from 2011 to 2015.
Oh my gosh! What a luck. Referee Mark Clattenburg giving a penalty to Besiktasin in the 77th minute. Penalty conceded by Napoli defender Nikola Maksimovic for a handball inside the penalty area. It is the ex-Inter player Ricardo Quaresma to convert the penalty defeating Napoli goalkeeper Pepe Reina with a right footed shot leaving him on the ground on his attempt to save in the bottom left corner.
Napoli reacting fast and equalize the score in the 82nd minute!!! It is spiky boy Captain Marek Hamsik to take care of business and encouraging the squad to keep battling. Hamsik defeating Besiktas goalkeeper with a left-footed shot in the bottom left corner. The assist is by forward Dries Mertens.
