Season summary

[edit]

Beşiktaş had the unsavoury distinction of setting the record for the heaviest defeat in Champions League history. Away to English giants Liverpool, who Beşiktaş had beat at home just weeks earlier, half-time arrived with the score at 2-0. However, Liverpool scored 6 more times in the second half to win 8-0, a scoreline that has yet to be bettered over one leg in the Champions League since.
