Ghana’s Kevin-Prince Boateng scores on Besiktas debut [VIDEO]

Kevin-Prince Boateng scored his first goal on his debut for Turkish club Besiktas in their big win over Gaziantep.

With the match level at 0-0 after 45 minutes, Boateng was brought on in the 46th minute for Adam Ljaijic.

Besiktas took the lead six minutes later, from a Burak Yilmaz penalty.

Boateng got his goal in the 70th minute, from a move he started in midfield.

Picking up the ball in front of the opposition box, Boateng switched play to the right hand side and made his way into the box.

His run was unchecked and he was on hand to tuck home the pinpoint ball across the box.

Boateng capped off the goal with an energetic celebration – one and a half flips – as his teammates rushed to join him as he soaked in the cheers of the home fans.

It was his first goal for the side since his loan move from Fiorentina in January.

Besiktas found a third goal in stoppage time from substitute Jeremie Lens.

The result keeps them in seventh place, three points from the top four.
