Besiktas were held to a goalless draw against Alanyaspor in the Super Lig on Friday.
Liverpool loanee Loris Karius rarely makes the headlines for the right reasons but he has been turning over a new leaf of late.
Karius kept his second clean sheet in a row for the Black Eagles and was named Man of the Match against Alanyaspor.
The 25-year-old made several impressive saves to keep his side in the game and rescue an important away point.
Karius has now kept three clean sheets this term and has started every game for Besiktas apart from two when he was ruled out with a back problem.
We took a look at how fans responded to his display on social media.

Terrible result for #Beşiktaş…
We could enter next week 8 points out of first place with three or four teams ahead of us.
A nightmare that could’ve been even worse if not for ‘grade-A’ performances by Vida and Karius.

Genius!
Need Karius to fail at his loan, come back, then suddenly become good again so we can have the best looking GK duo in history.
