In minute 85, Georges-Kevin N’Koudou added another goal for the Istanbul football club.
Four minutes later, Alanyaspor found a goal with Efkan Bekiroğlu, but it was disallowed following a VAR (Video Assistant Referee) decision for a foul.
Beşiktaş are atop the league standings with 67 points, while Aytemiz Alanyaspor is in fifth position with 49 points.
