The burgundy-blues, who began playing in cup finals in their first season in the league in 1974-1975 and have won 9 of the 15 final matches they have played to date, were unable to win their 16th final match against Beşiktaş, ending the season without a trophy.

The cup drought for the burgundy-blues, who last reached the championship by defeating Alanyaspor 2-0 in the 2019-2020 Turkish Cup final, has now extended to 4 seasons.

AVCI COULD NOT ACHIEVE A FIRST

Trabzonspor Head Coach Abdullah Avcı could not achieve his first Turkish Cup goal with the burgundy-blue team.

Under the management of Abdullah Avcı, who was first appointed on November 10, 2020, the burgundy-blues brought 3 championship trophies to their museum—1 in the Süper Lig and 2 in the Super Cup—but were unable to reach the happy ending only in the Turkish Cup.

BEŞİKTAŞ WINS 5TH FINAL

Beşiktaş won the 5th final match played between the two teams, who met in a cup final after 33 seasons.

The black-and-whites broke the tie between the two teams, who had each experienced the joy of winning the cup twice in the 4 previous matches, taking a 3-2 lead in final matches.

A SEASON WITHOUT A TROPHY

Trabzonspor, which fell out of the league championship race early, ended the season without a trophy after being defeated in the final of the Ziraat Turkish Cup.

The Black Sea team lost a cup final match for the first time at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium, where they had previously won the cup 5 times.
