‘It feels like a jet is taking off right next to you’

The German press described the atmosphere at the Tupras Stadium, where the Besiktas-Eintracht Frankfurt match took place, with vivid expressions.

Covering Besiktas’s 3-1 loss to Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League, the German media praised the atmosphere at Tupras Stadium and the passionate black-and-white supporters:

· Hessenschau: “All the cliches about Besiktas’s Tupras Stadium are true. It’s incredibly, insanely loud. When Besiktas fans whistle, it sounds and feels like a jet is taking off right next to you. The noise levels show 110 decibels. You can’t even imagine the world record of 141 decibels that was once measured here.”

· Sport1: “Eintracht made a perfect start in front of the breathtaking backdrop of Tupras Stadium, also known as ‘the cauldron.’ Goalkeeper Kaua Santos was especially impressive in the first half.”

· Frankfurter Rundschau: “Eintracht defeated Besiktas in Istanbul’s cauldron, but they should thank goalkeeper Santos for that.”

· Frankfurter Allgemeine: “Before the Bayern Munich match, Eintracht found great form with a 3-1 victory against Besiktas in Istanbul. Goalkeeper Santos, replacing Trapp, played with only a small flaw.”
