Besiktas beat rivals Bursaspor 2-0 at the Vodafone Park Stadium to move into 3rd place in the Super Lig on Saturday.

Liverpool loanee Loris Karius started in goal for Besiktas and managed to keep his fifth clean sheet in 17 games in the process.

The German keeper made three important saves and dealt well with aerial balls and set-pieces.

Karius was also praised for his distribution and contribution to attacking moves.
