Cenk Tosun scores the only goal of the mach as Besiktas beat Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 to claim top spot in their Europa League group.

Besiktas have claimed a 1-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur to leapfrog their opponents and finish top of their Europa League group.

The game was only eight minutes old when play was interrupted due to a floodlight failure.

Following a 16-minute delay the teams came back out and Spurs had a decent chance to score when a free kick from Paulinho was headed into the path of Roberto Soldado, who saw his close-range effort saved.

On the half-hour mark Besiktas threatened for the first time, as Olcay Sahan fired just over the bar.

Both teams were struggling to create any clear-cut chances, until Cenk Tosun sent a powerful strike from range onto the crossbar.

Tosun was involved again moments later and he gave Besiktas the lead by slotting in from Sahan's pass across the six-yard box.

Soldado fired wide and Danny Rose saw an effort saved by the keeper as Spurs looked for a response.

It was Besiktas who looked more dangerous, however, and Kerim Frei almost added a second, but after being slipped through on goal, he fired wide of the post.

There was a second floodlight failure in stoppage time, but when the players did return to the pitch Spurs were unable to find an equaliser and had to settle for a second-place finish in Group C.
